You are operating an old machine that is expected to produce a cash inflow of $5,000 in each of the next 3 years before it fails. You can replace it now with a new machine that costs $20,000, but is much more efficient and will provide a cash flow of $10,000 a year for 4 years. a) What is the NPV of the purchase of the new machine if you take into account only the incremental cash flows it can generate relative to the old machine? Given your computations, should you replace the old machine now? b) What is the EAA of the new machine if you look only at the cash flows associated to that machine? Does that computation suggest that you should replace your old equipment now?

You are operating an old machine that is expected to produce a cash inflow of $5,000 in each of the next 3 years before it fails. You can replace it now with a new machine that costs $20,000 but is much more efficient and will provide a cash flow of $10,000 a year for 4 years. Calculate the equivalent annual cost of the new machine if the discount rate is 15%. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Equivalent annual cost of the purchase price Should you replace your equipment now? O Yes No

You are operating an old machine that is expected to produce a cash inflow of $6,000 in each of the next 3 years before it fails.

Your firm is considering the purchase of two alternative machinery: Machine A has an expected life of 2 years, will cost Rs. 75 million, and will produce net cash flows of INR 45 million per year. Machine B has a life of 4 years, will cost INR 100 million, and will produce net cash flows of INR 33 million per year. Your firm plans to use the chosen machine for only 4 years. Inflation in operating costs, machinery costs, is expected to be zero, and the company’s cost of capital is 9%. Which machine is acceptable as the better project using replacement chain method? Will your choice hold if cost of A becomes INR 90 million for second year? What is the equivalent annual annuity cost for each machine and evaluating with this criterion, do you find any difference in your decision on the better machinery, when you had used replacement chain method?

You are operating an old machine that is expected to produce a cash inflow of $5,600 in each of the next 3 years before it fails. You can replace it now with a new machine that costs $20,600 but is much more efficient and will provide a cash flow of $10,900 a year for 4 years. Calculate the equivalent annual cost of the new machine if the discount rate is 15%. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Equivalent annual cost of the purchase price $ 791.60 x

You are operating an old machine that is expected to produce a cash inflow of $6,500 in each of the next 3 years before it fails. You can replace it now with a new machine that costs $21,500 but is much more efficient and will provide a cash flow of $12,250 a year for 4 years. Calculate the equivalent annual cost of the new machine if the discount rate is 14%.

Suppose Kyler Valley is deciding whether to purchase new accounting software. The payback for the $30,050 software package is five ​years, and the​ software's expected life is nine years. Kyler ​Valley's required rate of return for this type of project is 11.0​%. Assuming equal yearly cash​ flows, what are the expected annual net cash savings from the new​ software?   (1)   ÷ (2)   = Expected annual net cash inflow   ÷   =   (1)        Amount invested   Average amount invested   Expected useful life   Payback   Required rate of return (2)        Amount invested   Average amount invested   Expected useful life   Payback   Required rate of return

You purchase a machine. It costs $75,000 and will expand cash flow by $1,000 /month in year 1 growing by 2% per year after that. The system will work for 10 years before you have to replace it. What are the NPV (at a 3.3% discount rate) and IRR? The vendor offers you another machine costing $100,000 and lasting 12 years, with the same cash flow gains and a 3% growth rate. What are the NPV and the IRR for it? Should you get it?

Salt Lake Potash is considering a project with the following cash flows. An initial investment of $1.025bn is required for the project. The discount rate is 9%. The company wants to calculate how long it would take investors to recover their initial investment. The company does not want to ignore the effects of time value of money and the discount rate.
