- An asset with a first cost of $7,000 is depreciated using the Modified Accelerated Cost recovery System (MACRS) over a 5-year period. The cash flow before taxes (CFBT) is estimated at $10,000 for the first 4 years and $5000 thereafter as long as the asset is retained. The effective tax rate is 40%, and the money is worth 8% per year.

This crane costs $1,125,000 and is expected to last for 25 years, at which time it will have an expected salvage value of $147,000. FCER earns $195,000 before-tax cash flow each year in rental income from this crane, and its total taxable income each year is between $10M and $15M.

- Your firm, Agrico Products, is considering the purchase of a tractor that has a net cost of $72,000, will increase pretax operating cash flows before taking account of depreciation effects by $24,000 per year, and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis to $0 over five years at the rate of $14,400 per year, beginning the first year. (Annual cash flows will be $24,000 before taxes plus the tax savings that result from $14,400 of depreciation.) The board of directors is having a heated debate about whether the tractor actually will last five years. Specifically, Joan Lamm insists that she knows of some tractors have lasted only four years. Alan Grunewald agrees with Lamm, but he argues that most tractors do provide five years of service. Judy Maese says she has known some to last for as long as eight years. Given this discussion, the board asks you to prepare a scenario analysis to ascertain the importance of the uncertainty about the tractor’s life span.

The expected life of the project is 5 years without any salvage value. Assume that the company is allowed to charge depreciation on straight-line basis for Income-tax purpose. The estimated before-tax cash inflows are given below: Year Before-tax Cash inflows ('000) 1 2 3 4 5 240 275 210 180 160 The applicable Income-tax rate to the Company is 35%.

The related cash flow from operations, net of income taxes, is expected to be P10,000 a year for each of the first 6 years and P12,000 for the next 4 years. It was also estimated that the salvage value of the project at the end of year 1 to be P60,000 and decreases by P5,000 each year thereafter, provided further that at the end of 10 years, the machine has no salvage value.
