TLC Corp. is considering purchasing one of two new diagnostic machines. Either machine would make it possible for the company to bid on jobs that it currently is not equipped to do. Estimates for each machine are as follows: Original cost Estimated life Salvage value Estimated annual cash inflows Estimated annual cash outflows Machine A $78,500 8 years Net present value $ Profitability index 0 $22,200 $4,900 Machine B Machine A Which machine should be purchased? $190,100 Click here to view PV table. Calculate the net present value and profitability index of each machine. Assume a 10% discount rate. (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided, e.g. 1.25124 and final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.

Vigour Pharmaceuticals Ltd. is considering investing in a newproduction line for its pain-reliever medicine for individuals whosuffer from cardio vascular diseases. The company has to invest inequipment which costs $2,500,000 and will be depreciated under theMACRS system for a 5-year asset class. It is expected to have a scrapvalue of $700,000 at the end of the project. Other than the equipment,the company needs to increase its cash and cash equivalents by$100,000, increase the level of inventory by $30,000, increaseaccounts receivable by $250,000 and increase account payable by$50,000 at the beginning of the project.

APA is planning to expand its operations and plans to purchase a parcel of land on which to construct a building for their review center, which they will need 5 years hence. The current costs are: land: P2M; building: P3.5M. Since these are not needed immediately, the company plans to defer the purchase of the land and the construction of the building until they are needed. If the value of the land and the cost of the building are expected to appreciate at the rates of 10% and 8% per annum, respectively. What will be the total cost of the investment after 5 years? A.

Rust Industrial Systems Company is trying to decide between two different conveyor belt systems. System A costs $350,000, has a 4-year life, and requires $141,000 in pretax annual operating costs. System B costs $430,000, has a 6-year life, and requires $135,000 in pretax annual operating costs. Both systems are to be depreciated straight- line to zero over their lives and will have zero salvage value. Whichever project is chosen, it will not be replaced when it wears out. The tax rate is 22 percent and the discount rate is 8 percent. Calculate the NPV for both conveyor belt systems. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) System A System B Which conveyor belt system should the firm choose? ○ System B O System A
Wildhorse's Auto Care is considering the purchase of a new tow truck. The garage doesn't currently have a tow truck, and the $59,950 price tag for a new truck would represent a major expenditure. Wildhorse Austen, owner of the garage, has compiled the following estimates in trying to determine whether the tow truck should be purchased. Initial cost $59,950 Estimated useful life 8 years Net annual cash flows from towing $7,990 Overhaul costs (end of year 4) $5,970 Salvage value $12,000 Show Transcribed Text د Wildhorse's good friend, Rick Ryan, stopped by. He is trying to convince Wildhorse that the tow truck will have other benefits that Wildhorse hasn't even considered. First, he says, cars that need towing need to be fixed. Thus, when Wildhorse tows them to her facility, her repair revenues will increase. Second, he notes that the tow truck could have a plow mounted on it, thus saving Wildhorse the cost of plowing her parking lot. (Rick will give her a used plow blade for free if…
Sheep Ranch Golf Academy is evaluating new golf practice equipment. The "Dimple- Max" equipment costs $110,000, has a 4-year life, and costs $9,100 per year to operate. The relevant discount rate is 12 percent. Assume that the straight-line depreciation method is used and that the equipment is fully depreciated to zero. Furthermore, assume the equipment has a salvage value of $8,300 at the end of the project's life. The relevant tax rate is 24 percent. All cash flows occur at the end of the year. What is the equivalent annual cost (EAC) of this equipment? (A negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) EAC
note: can you help me answer the question for s, t and u? Lee Wah Press (LWP) is considering a leasing arrangement to finance some special printing machines that it needs for production during the next three years. A planned change in the company’s production technology will make the new machine obsolete after 3 years. LWP will depreciate the new machine on a straight-line basis towards zero salvage value. The firm can borrow the installed cost of $480,000, at 10% interest per annum, calculated on an annual reducing balance, to buy the new machine or make three equal beginning-of-year lease payments of $210,000 should it decide to take up lease financing. Annual maintenance costs associated with ownership, payable at the end of year, are estimated at $25,000. Annual insurance premium associated with the purchase is estimated to be at $6,000, payment is on a cash-before-cover basis. Should LWP opt for lease financing, all other costs will be borne by the lessor. LWP tax rate is 40%.…
Riverbed, a large manufacturing company, currently uses a large printing press in its operations and is considering two replacements: the PDX341 and PDW581. The PDX costs $493,000 and has annual maintenance costs of $9,300 for the first 5 years and $14,300 for the next 10 years. After 15 years, the PDX will be scrapped (salvage value is zero). In contrast, the PDW can be acquired for $123,250 and requires maintenance of $28,600 a year for its 10-year life. The salvage value of the PDW is expected to be zero in 10 years. Assuming that Riverbed must replace its current printing press (it has stopped functioning), has a(n) 10-percent cost of capital, and all cash flows are after tax, which replacement press is the most appropriate? (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 125.25.) Chain Replication Approach: NPV of PDX341 $ NPV of PDW581 $ We would prefer Equivalent Annual NPV Approach: Equivalent Annual NPV of PDX341 $ Equivalent Annual NPV of PDW581 $ We would prefer

Tanaka Industrial Systems Company is trying to decide between two different conveyor belt systems. System A costs $360,000, has a 4-year life, and requires $149,000 in pretax annual operating costs. System B costs $440,000, has a 6-year life, and requires $143,000 in pretax annual operating costs. Both systems are to be depreciated straight- line to zero over their lives and will have zero salvage value. Suppose the company always needs a conveyor belt system; when one wears out, it must be replaced. Assume the tax rate is 24 percent and the discount rate is 10 percent. Calculate the EAC for both conveyor belt systems. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Answer is complete but not entirely correct. System A -650,486.43 X System B -836,677.14 X $ $
