Spiro Hospital is investigating the possibility of investing in new dialysis equipment. Two local manufacturers of this equipment are being considered as sources of the equipment. After-tax cash inflows for the two competing projects are as follows: Year Puro Equipment Briggs Equipment 1 $320,000 $120,000 2 280,000 120,000 240,000 320,000 4 160,000 400,000 120,000 440,000 Both projects require an initial investment of $560,000. In both cases, assume that the equipment has a life of 5 years with no salvage value. Required: Round present value calculations and your final answers to the nearest dollar. 1. Assuming a discount rate of 12%, compute the net present value of each piece of equipment. Puro equipment: Briggs eguipment: 3.

The Sopwith Aviation Company is considering building a new short-range commuter jet, code named 'Sky Streak.' The aircraft's engines will be powered by a new green energy source: high-tension elastomer. The plane will be built in the old, unused S.E.5a assembly facility in Everett WA. The project is expected to last three years. Selected cash flows for the project are summarized in the table below. Sopwith's tax rate is 34% and its cost of capital is 12%. The NPV of the project is $242.86M.

Liwayway High School is planning to install solar panels to provide some of the electricity for its groundwater desalting facilty. The project would be done in two phases. The first phase will cost P400 million in year 1 and P500 million in year 2. This investment will result in energy savings (phase 2) of P54,000,000 in year 3, P54,600,000 in year 4, and amounts increasing by P600,000 each year through year 10. Let i = 10% per year.(a) What is the future worth of the savings?(b) Is the cost of the solar project justified by the savings? (Hint: Calculate the difference between savings and cost).
Torbet Fish Packing Company wants to accumulate enough money over the next 12 years to pay for the expected replacement of its digitalized, automated scaling machine. The new machine is expected to cost $240,000 in 12 years. Torbet currently has $15,000 that it plans to invest over the next 12 years to help pay for the new machine. Torbet wants to put away an equal, end-of-year amount into a sinking fund investment account at the end of each of the next 12 years. Earnings on all of the investments are expected to be 8 percent for the first six years and 10 percent thereafter. What equal, end-of-year amount must Torbet save each year over the next 12 years to meet these needs? Use Table I and Table III or a financial calculator to answer the question. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
