Tom Morrison Inc. is evaluating a new golf ball called the 'Feathery'. The production line would be set up in an unused section of Morrison's main plant. The machinery is estimated at $480,000. Further, Morrison's inventories would have to be increased by $50,000 to handle the new line. The machinery will be used for two years and have an expected salvage value of $200,000 at the end of that time. Morrison's tax rate is 30%. Operating earnings (EBITDA) are expected to be $330,000 per year for each of the two years. Assume that the purchase of the machine and increase in inventory occur at the beginning of the first year of operations. Assume that operating cash flows occur at the end of each of the two years of operations. What are the terminal year cash flows?

Pilot Plus Pens is deciding when to replace its old machine. The old machine's current salvage value is $3 million. Its current book value is $2 million. If not sold, the old machine will require maintenance costs of $500,000 at the end of the year for the next five years. Depreciation on the old machine is $400,000 per year. At the end of five years, the old machine will have a salvage value of $400,000 and a book value of $0. A replacement machine costs $4 million now and requires maintenance costs of $350,000 at the end of each year during itsfeconomic life of five years. At the end of the five years, the new machine will have a salvage value of $1,000,000. It will be fully depreciated by the straight-line method. In five years, a replacement machine will cost $5,000,000. Pilot will need to purchase this machine regardless of what choice it makes today. The corporate tax rate is 28 percent and the appropriate discount rate is 10 percent. The company is assumed to earn sufficient…

A construction company is considering acquiring a new earthmover. The purchase price is $105,000, and an additional $28,000 is required to modify the equipment for special use by the company. The equipment falls into the MACRS seven-year classification (the tax life), and it will be sold after five years (the project life) for $55,000. The purchase of the earthmover will have no effect on revenues, but the machine is expected to save the firm $70,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm's marginal tax rate is 21%. Assume that the initial investment is to be financed by a bank loan at an interest rate of 6% payable annually. Determine the after-tax cash flows by using the generalized cash flow approach and the worth of the investment for this project if the firm's MARR is known to be 11%.
Arnold Inc. is considering a new project that requires use of an existing warehouse, which the firm acquired three years ago for $1 million and which it currently rents out for $121,000. Rental rates are not expected to change going forward. In addition to using the warehouse, the project requires an upfront investment into machines and other equipment of $1.6 million. This investment can be fully depreciated straight-line over the next 10 years for tax purposes. However, Arnold Inc. expects to terminate the project at the end of eight years and to sell the machines and equipment for $471,000. Finally, the project requires an initial investment into net working capital equal to 10% of predicted first-year sales. Subsequently, net working capital is 10% of the predicted sales over the following year. Sales of protein bars are expected to be $4.6 million in the first year and to stay constant for eight years. Total manufacturing costs and operating expenses (excluding depreciation) are…
Your firm needs a computerized machine tool lathe that costs $50,000 and requires $12,000 in maintenance for each year of its three-year life. After three years, this machine will be replaced. The machine falls into the MACRS three-year class life category, and neither bonus depreciation nor Section 179 expensing can be used. Assume a tax rate of 21 percent and a discount rate of 12 percent. If the lathe can be sold for $5,000 at the end of year three, what is the after-tax salvage value?
Tucker Enterprise Inc. is considering a project that requires a numerically controlled (NC) machine for $28,000 (year 0) and plans to use it for five years, after which time it will be scrapped. The allowed depreciation deduction during the first year is $4,000 because the equipment falls into the seven-year MACRS property category. (The first-year depreciation rate is 14.29%.) The cost of the goods produced by this NC machine should include a charge for the depreciation of the machine. Suppose the company estimates the following revenues and expenses, including the depreciation for the first operating year:• Gross income = $50,000• Cost of goods sold = $20,000• Depreciation on the NC machine= $4,000• Operating expenses = $6,000Without the project, the company's taxable income from regular business operations amounts to $20 million, which places the company in the highest tax bracket of 35%. Compute the net income from the project during the first year.
