PROBLEM 1. New Project You must evaluate a proposal to buy a new milling machine. The base price is $108,000, and shipping and installation costs would add another $12,500. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $65,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7%. The machine would require a $5,500 increase in working capital (increased inventory less increased accounts payable). There would be no effect on revenues, but pretax labor costs would decline by $44,000 per year. The marginal tax rate is 35%, and the WACC is 12%. Also, the firm spent $5,000 last year investigating the feasibility of using the machine. What are the project's annual net cash flows during Years 0 through 3?

QUESTION 3 You are considering starting a new factory producing small electric heaters. Each unit will sell at a price of $55. The production cost of each heater is $35. You are expecting to sell 9000 units per year. This project has an economic life of 6 years. The project requires an investment of $700000 in plants and equipment. This equipment will be depreciated to zero salvage value based on 5-year MACRS schedule. The depreciation rates from year 1 to 6 are 20 % ,32 %, 19.2 %, 11.52 %, 11.52 %, and 5.76 percent, respectively. The company will sell its old equipment for $100,000. The old machine is fully depreciated. The required rate of return for the project is 12 percent, the working capital requirement is 10 percent of the next year's sales revenue. The marginal corporate tax rate is 20 percent. At the termination of the project, the plant and equipment will be sold for an estimated value of $50000. Based on these assumptions, estimate the cash flow for capital expenditures.…
