A firm is considering an investment in a new machine with a price of $15.9 million to replace its existing machine. The current machine has a book value of $5.7 million and a market value of $4.4 million. The new machine is expected to have a 4-year life, and the old machine has four years left in which it can be used. If the firm replaces the old machine with the new machine, it expects to save $6.45 million in operating costs each year over the next four years. Both machines will have no salvage value in four years. If the firm purchases the new machine, it will also need an investment of $280,000 in net working capital. The required return on the investment is 11 percent and the tax rate is 23 percent. The company uses straight-line depreciation. a)- What is the NPV of the decision to purchase the new machine? b) What is the IRR of the decision to purchase the new machine? c) WHat is the NPV of the decison to keep using the old machine? d) What is the IRR of the decison to keep…
ACE Ltd is evaluating whether it should invest in a machine that costs $100,000. The machine would be fully depreciated over ten years to zero value using the straight-line depreciation method. With the new machine, the firm projects that it will be able to generate an additional $20,000 annually in sales revenue and additional $10,000 cost annually. The firm would also need an additional net working capital of $40,000. Given the firm’s cost of capital is 10% and tax rate of 20%, calculate annual operating cash flow (OCF) of the investment.
