Watkins Construction and Engineering won a bid with the Growth and Environmental Management Department that will generate them $15,000 revenue/per year over the next three years. The project requires an acquisition of a new earth mover. The mover's basic price is $40,000; it would cost another $10,000 to modify it for special use. The equipment falls in the 3-year MACRS class (33%, 45%, 15%,7%) and will be sold after three years for $20,000. Tax rate is 40%. The earth mover will also save the firm $20,000 per year in before-tax costs. The project will also require an upfront investment of $2,000 in NOWC with 100% recovery of it at the end of the project.

- Ogren Corporation is considering purchasing a new spectrometer for the firm’s R&D department. The purchase price is $70,000 and it would cost another $15,000 to install it. The spectrometer which falls into the MACRS 3-year property class (Year 1 - 33.33%, Year 2 - 44.44%, Year 3 - 14.82%, and Year 4 - 7.41%) is projected to be sold after three years for $30,000. Use of this equipment would result in an increased net working capital of $4,000 over the life of the machine.
