The Drug-Free Center, a growing nonprofit, is currently considering the construction of a new wing to extend its treatment building. After consulting with a law firm that specializes in municipal bonds, the nonprofit has decided to issue a tax-exempt municipal bond, taking advantage of the potential lower financing costs. The initial consideration of the bond issue is $50 million, and the bond issuance cost is estimated to be $1 million, including all professional services of the bond counsel and financial adviser, in addition to the underwriting firm. The full term of the bond issue is twenty years, in consideration of the economic life of the facility before the major renovation is needed. The interest rate is 6 percent, based on the market rate for tax-exempt municipal bonds for similar projects at the time. The city authority has agreed to issue the bond based on a signed inducement. You are the nonprofit's financial manager and are asked to create a bond structure and payment…

As a result, municipal bond investors are willing to accept lower yields than those they can obtain from taxable bonds.

The treasurer does not know whether the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will permit the company to treat this installation cost as a tax-deductible expense (end of Year 1) or view the installation as part of the capital investment.
