← Your company has purchased equipment (for $50.000) that will redoce materials and labor costs by $12,000 each year for N years. After N years, there will be no further need for the machine, and because the machine is specially designed, it will have no MV at any time. The RS, however, has ruled that you must depreciate the equipment on a SL basis with a tax life of five years. If the effective income tax rate is 35%, what is the minimum number of years your fem must operate the equipment to earn 10% per year after taxes on its investment?

A company purchases an industrial laser for $123,000. The device has a useful life of 4 years and a salvage value (market value) at the end of those four years of $50,000. The before-tax cash flow is estimated to be $95,000 per year. a. You, of course, suggested applying the 3-year MACRS (GDS) method instead of the straight-line method. Given an effective tax rate of 26%, determine the depreciation schedule and the after tax cash flow. b. Based on the MACRS depreciation schedule for this asset, if the industrial laser was sold for $75,000 in year two (consider year two to be the "year 2" row in the table in Part (a), what will be the amount of gain (depreciation recapture) or loss on the disposal of the asset at the end of this year? how do you solve for part a for ATCF in year 4. how do you solve part b.
