Sheridan Roofing is faced with a decision. The company relies very heavily on the use of its 60-foot extension lift for work on large homes and commercial properties. Last year, Sheridan Roofing spent $63,500 refurbishing the lift. It has just determined that another $53,500 of repair work is required. Alternatively, it has found a newer used lift that is for sale for $180,500. The company estimates that both lifts would have useful lives of 6 years. The new lift is more efficient and thus would reduce operating expenses from $97,000 to $63,500 each year. Sheridan Roofing could also rent out the new lift for about $8,500 per year. The old lift is not suitable for rental. The old lift could currently be sold for $21,500 if the new lift is purchased. The new lift and old lift are estimated to have salvage values of zero if used for another 6 years. Prepare an incremental analysis showing whether the company should repair or replace the equipment. (Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number (e.g., -45) or parentheses (e.g.. (45)).) Operating expenses Retain Equipment Replace Equipment Increase (Decrease)

Dobbs Corporation is considering purchasing a new delivery truck. The truck has many advantages over the company's current truck (not the least of which is that it runs). The new truck would cost $55,981. Because of the increased capacity, reduced maintenance costs, and increased fuel economy, the new truck is expected to generate cost savings of $8,900. At the end of eight years, the company will sell the truck for an estimated $28,400. Traditionally, the company has used a general rule that it should not accept a proposal unless it has a payback period that is less than 50% of the asset's estimated useful life. Pavel Chepelev, a new manager, has suggested that the company should not rely only on the payback approach but should also use the net present value method when evaluating new projects. The company's cost of capital is 8%. 1. Calculate the cash payback period and net present value of the proposed investment.
Blossom Company has a factory machine with a book value of $85,000 and a remaining useful life of 5 years. It can be sold for $25,000. A new machine is available at a cost of $345,000. This machine will have a 5-year useful life with no salvage value. The new machine will lower annual variable manufacturing costs from $550,000 to $450,000. Prepare an analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced. (In the first two columns, enter costs and expenses as positive amounts, and any amounts received as negative amounts. In the third column, enter net income increases as positive amounts and decreases as negative amounts. Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)

Hillsong Inc. manufactures snowsuits. Hillsong is considering purchasing a new sewing machine at a cost of $2.45 million. Its existing machine was purchased five years ago at a price of $1.8 million; six months ago, Hillsong spent $55,000 to keep it operational. The existing sewing machine can be sold today for $240,352. The new sewing machine would require a one-time, $85,000 training cost. Operating costs would decrease by the following amounts for years 1 to 7: Year 1 $390,600 2 400,200 3 410,000 4 425,200 5 432,400 6 435,500 7 436,300 The new sewing machine would be depreciated according to the declining-balance method at a rate of 20%. The salvage value is expected to be $380,500. This new equipment would require maintenance costs of $94,900 at the end of the fifth year. The cost of capital is 9%. Use the net present value method to determine the following: (If net present value is negative then enter with negative sign…
Your Corporation bought a stamping machine to make the cans. The cost of the machine was $60,000. The machine has a useful life of 5 years and a salvage value of zero at the end of those five years. The variable manufacturing cost of producing the cans is $0.05 per can. The only fixed manufacturing cost is the annual depreciation of $12,000 on the stamping machine. Your Corporation needs 200,000 cans annually. Another Company recently offered to supply all of the can needs for the next four years at $0.07 per can. If Your Company buys the cans, it can sell the stamping machine right now for $35,000. If Your Company buys the cans, what will be the total dollar increase or decrease in income for the total four years? Enter an incrase as a positve number. Enter a decrease with a minus sign in front.
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.)

Management of Plascencia Corporation is considering whether to purchase a new model 370 machine costing $511,000 or a new model 220 machine costing $471,000 to replace a machine that was purchased 7 years ago for $503,000. The old machine was used to make product I43L until it broke down last week. Unfortunately, the old machine cannot be repaired. Management has decided to buy the new model 220 machine. It has less capacity than the new model 370 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product I43L. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of simply dropping product I43L. If that were done, instead of investing $471,000 in the new machine, the money could be invested in a project that would return a total of $479,000. In making the decision to invest in the model 220 machine, the opportunity cost was: Multiple Choice $503,000 $471,000 $511,000 $479,000
