A manufacturer purchased and installed a shrink-wrap machine 4 years ago at a cost of $4,000. A new machine is now needed, and one is available for $7,000 less a $1,000 trade-in allowance for the old machine. The market value of the old machine without trade-in on a new model is $500. Which of the four dollar values above is a sunk cost that is irrelevant in a pre-tax engineering economic analysis?

Flag question: Question 8
A corporate expects to receive $36,144 each year for 15 years if a particular project is undertaken. There will be an initial investment of $100,705. The expenses associated with the project are expected to be $7,740 per year. Assume straight-line depreciation, a 15-year useful life, and no salvage value. Use a combined state and federal 48% marginal tax rate, MARR of 8%, determine the project's after-tax net present worth.

- A firm has the opportunity to invest in a project having an initial outlay of $20,000. Net cash inflows (before depreciation and taxes) are expected to be $5,000 per year for five years. The firm uses the straight-line depreciation method with a zero salvage value and has a (marginal) income tax rate of 40 percent. The firms cost of capital is 12 percent. Compute the IRR and the NPV. Should the firm accept or reject the project?arrow_forwardA firm can purchase a centrifugal separator (5-year MACRS property) for $22,000. The estimated salvage value is $4,000 after a useful life of six years. Operating and maintenance (O&M) costs for the first year are expected to be $2,200. These O&M costs are projected to increase by $1,000 per year each year thereafter. The income tax rate is 24% and the MARR is 11% after taxes. What must the uniform annual benefits be for the purchase of the centrifugal separator to be economical on an after-tax basis?arrow_forward7arrow_forward
- An investment of $1.000.000 will be included in the 7-year MACRS class for depreciation. It would also require an additional $150,000 to invest in inventory and would add $50,000 to accounts payable. Will generate $400000 in revenue and $150000 in cash expenses annually. The tax rate is 21 per cent.

This equipment qualified as MACRS 5-year property. Maintenance costs are estimated to be $1000 this next year and will increase by $1000 per year thereafter. The market (salvage) value for the equipment is $10,000 at the end of this year and declines by $1000 per year in the future. If BC Junction has an after-tax MARR of 30%, a marginal tax rate of 28% on ordinary income, depreciation recapture, and losses, what aftertax life of this previously purchased equipment has the lowest EUAC?arrow_forward

The plant was completed and operation begun on April 1. Yearly revenue for the project is expected to be $750,000 with expenses of $500,000. If the firm used MACRS for depreciation and pays taxes at the corporate rate what is the after-tax cash flow for this project in each year of the equipment's useful life?
