Cisco Systems is purchasing a new bar code scanning device for its service center in San Francisco. The table on the right lists the relevant initial costs for this purchase. The service life of the system is 4 years and its salvage value for depreciation purposes is expected to be about 22% of the hardware cost. a. What is the cost basis of the device? b. What are the annual depreciations of the device if (i) the SL method is used? (ii) the 150% DB method is used? (iii) the 200% DB method is used? c. Calculate the book values of the device at the end of 4 years using all the methods above.

Freida Company is considering an asset replacement project of replacing a control device. This old control device has been fully depreciated but can be sold for $5,000. The new control device, which is more automated, will cost $42,000. The new device’s installation and shipping costs will total $16,000. The new device will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 2-year economic life to an estimated salvage value of $0. The actual salvage value of this device at the end of 2-year period (That is, the market value of the device at the end of 2-year period) is estimated to be $4,000. If the replacement project is accepted, Freida will require an initial working capital investment of $2,200 (that is, adding $2,200 initially to its net working capital). During the 1st year of operations, Freida expects its annual revenue to increase from $72,800 to $90,000. After the 1st year, revenues from the replacement are expected to increase at a rate of $2,800 a year for the remainder of…
The management of Jasper Equipment Company is planning to purchase a new milling machine that will cost $160,000 installed. The old milling machine has been fully depreciated but can be sold for $15,000. The new machine will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 10-year economic life to an estimated salvage value of $10,000. If this milling machine will save Jasper $20,000 a year in production expenses, what are the annual net cash flows associated with the purchase of this machine? Assume a marginal tax rate of 40 percent. a. $15,000 b. $27,000 c. $21,000 d. $18,000
The AW values for retaining a presently owned machine for additional years are shown in the table. Note that the values represent the AW amount for each of the n years that the asset is kept, i.e., if it is kept 5 more years, the annual worth is $−95,000 for each of the 5 years. Assume that future costs remain as estimated for the replacement study and that used machines like the one presently owned will always be available. (a) What is the ESL and associated AW of the defender at a MARR of 12% per year? (b) A challenger with an ESL of 7 years and an AWC = $-88,000 per year has been identified. Which AW will be less for the respective ESL periods? Retention Period, Years AW Value, $ per Year 1 -87,000 2 -93,000 3 -85,000 4 -83,000 5 -95,000 a) The ESL of the defender is_____ year(s) with the lowest AW of $_________ . b) The______________ has the lower AW at _________$ for n equal to ______ .
Ralph’s Bow Works (RBW) is planning to add a new line of bow ties that will require the acquisition of a new knitting and tying machine. The machine will cost $1.3 million. It is classified as a 7-year MACRS asset and will be depreciated as such. Interest costs associated with financing the equipment purchase are estimated to be $50,000 per year. The expected salvage value of the machine at the end of 10 years is $80,000. The decision to add the new line of bow ties will require additional net working capital of $55,000 immediately, $30,000 at the end of year 1, and $10,000 at the end of year 2. RBW expects to sell $370,000 worth of the bow ties during each of the 10 years of product life. RBW expects the sales of its other ties to decline by $23,000 (in year 1) as a result of adding this new line of ties. The lost sales level will remain constant at $23,000 over the 10-year life of the proposed project. The cost of producing and selling the ties is estimated to be $70,000 per year.…

A company is thinking when to replace its old machine. It has two choices: replace the old machine now, or replace it at the end of seven years. Currently, the old machine has a salvage value of $3 million and book value of $1.5 million. If it is not sold, it will require maintenance costs of $770,000 at the end of the year over the nextsix years. The depreciation expense for the machine is $300,000 per year. At the end of six years, the machine will have a salvage value of only $100,000 and a book value of $0. If the company replaces the old machine now, the new machine will cost $4.9 million and will require maintenance costs of $320,000 at the end of each year during its six years economic life. At the end of six years, the new machine will have a salvage value of $900,000. It willbe fully depreciated using the straight-line method.

Required information A land development company is considering the purchase of earth-moving equipment. This equipment will have an estimated first cost of $163,000, a salvage value of $55,000, a life of 10 years, a maintenance cost of $32,000 per year, and an operating cost of $220 per day. Alternatively, the company can rent the necessary equipment for $1010 per day and hire a driver at $180 per day. When approached to rent for the breakeven number of days, the equipment owner indicated that the minimum rental is for 100 days per year; however, he might consider a lower daily rental cost. What is the daily rental cost to justify renting over purchasing? If the equipment was purchased, assume it would be used for the breakeven number of days. Determine the required rental cost per day. The daily rental cost to justify renting over purchasing is determined to be $
