A manufacturer is considering the replacement of one of its boring machines with a newer and more efficient one. The relevant details for both defender and challenger are as follows:• Defender: The current book value of the old boring machine is $50,000, and it has a remaining useful life of five years. The salvage value expected from scrapping the old machine at the end of five years is zero, but the company can sell the machine now to another firm in the industry for $10,000.• Challenger: The new boring machine can be purchased at a price of $150,000 and has an estimated useful life of seven years. It has an estimated salvage value of $50,000 and is expected to realize economic savings on electric power usage, labor, and repair costs and to reduce the amount of reworks. In total, annual savings of $80,000 will be realized if the new machine is installed.The firm uses an MARR of 12%. Using the opportunity-cost approach, address the following questions:(a) What is the initial cash…

XYZ Co. is considering the purchase of a new machine. The machine will cost $250,000 and requires installation costs of $25,000. The existing machine can be sold currently for $25,070. It was purchased three years ago for $83,000 and depreciated using MACRS (5 years). It can be operated for another four years. Its market value at that time, if sold, would be $14,000. The new machine has expected life of five years and expected to provide operating cash savings of $88,000 a year for 2 years and $50,000 a year for the next two years before depreciation and taxes (EBD&T). After four years the new machine can be sold for $12,750. To support the increased business resulting from the purchase of new machine, A/R will increase by $12,000; inventory will increase by $25,000 and current liabilities by $41,000. The cost of capital is 17% and the tax rate is 40%. What is NPV? Question 9 options: $56,900 -$65,880 -$63,118 -$76,890
Henrie's Drapery Service is investigating the purchase of a new machine for cleaning and blocking drapes. The machine would cost $102,990, including freight and installation. Henrie's estimated the new machine would increase the company's cash inflows, net of expenses, by $30,000 per year. The machine would have a five-year useful life and no salvage value. Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using table. Required: 1. What is the machine's internal rate of return? (Round your answer to the nearest whole percentage, i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12%.) 2. Using a discount rate of 14%, what is the machine's net present value? Interpret your results. 3. Suppose the new machine would increase the company's annual cash inflows, net of expenses, by only $26,475 per year. Under these conditions, what is the internal rate of return? (Round your answer to the nearest whole percentage, i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12%.) 1.…
Riverview Company is evaluating the proposed acquisition of a new production machine. The machine's base price is $200,000, and installation costs would amount to $28,000. Also, $10,000 in net working capital would be required at installation. The machine will be depreciated for 3 years using simplified straight line depreciation. The machine would save the firm $110,000 per year in operating costs. The firm is planning to keep the machine in place for 2 years. At the end of the second year, the machine will be sold for $100,000. Riverview has a cost of capital of 12% and a marginal tax rate of 34%. What is the NPV of the project? $9,555 $19,016 - $9,783 $3,875 $12,155

Looner Industries is currently analyzing the purchase of a new machine that costs $158,000 and requires $19,900 in installation costs. Purchase of this machine is expected to result in an increase in net working capital of $29,600 to support the expanded level of operations. The firm plans to depreciate the machine under MACRS using a five-year recovery period (see the table attached for the applicable depreciation percentages) and expects to sell the machine to net $10,300 before taxes at the end of its usable life. The firm is subject to a 21% tax rate c. Assuming a five-year usable life, calculate the terminal cash flow if the machine were sold to net (1) $8,895 or (2) $169,900 (before taxes) at the end of five years. d. Discuss the effect of sale price on terminal cash flow using your findings in part c.
Duluth Medico purchased a digital imageprocessing machine three years ago at a cost of$50,000. The machine had an expected life of eightyears at the time of purchase and an expected salvagevalue of $5,000 at the end of the eight years. Theold machine has been slow at handling the increasedbusiness volume, so management is consideringreplacing the machine. A new machine can be purchased for $75,000, including installation costs.Over its five-year life, the machine will reduce cashoperating expenses by $30,000 per year. Sales arenot expected to change. At the end of its useful life,the machine is estimated to be worthless. The oldmachine can be sold today for $10,000. The firm’sinterest rate for project justification is known to be15%. The firm does not expect a better machine(other than the current challenger) to be available forthe next five years. Assuming that the economic service life of the new machine, as well as the remaininguseful life of the old machine, is five years,(a)…

City Towing is considering the purchase of a new tow truck. The garage currently has no tow truck, and the $100,000 price tag for a new truck would be a major expenditure. The expected useful life is 7 years. The owner of the garage has compiled the following estimates in trying to determine whether the tow truck should be purchased: Purchase of truck $100,000 Salvage value $15,000 Additional net inflows per year $16,000 Repairs required at the end of year 3 $5,000 Minimum required return on investments 12%
CTI Corporation purchased a special-purpose turnkey stamping machine four years ago for $18,000. It was estimated at that time that this machine would have a life of 10 years and a salvage value of $4,000 with a removal cost of $1,500. These estimates are still good. This machine has annual operating costs of $3,000. A new machine, which is more efficient, will reduce the annual operating costs to $1,500 but will require an investment of $22,000, plus $2,000 for installation. The life of the new machine is estimated to be 12 years with a salvage value of $4,000 and a removal cost of $2,000. An offer of $7,000 has been made for the old machine, and the purchaser is willing to pay for its removal. Find the economic advantage of replacement or of continuing with the present machine. State any assumptions that you make. (Assume i = 12%.)
There is old machinery with a value of $95,565, with an expected life of 20 years. There is a sale of old equipment with a book value of $30,000 and a market value of $66,000.It is intended to replace that machine with a new one worth $145,000 with a useful life of 10 years. It will ultimately be sold at market value for $90,000, to generate salvage value.Old operating costs are $95,565 and new costs are $56,984.
