Dauten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $8,000, an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of $800. This machine falls into the MACRS 5-year class so the applicable depreciation rates are 20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 11%, and 6%. The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1,000 per year; even so, the new machine’s much greater efficiency would cause operating expenses to decline by $1,500 per year. The new machine would require that inventories be increased by $2,000, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $500. Dauten’s marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%, and its WACC is 15%. Should it replace the old machine?

The Dakuten Toy Corporation currently uses an injection molding machine that was purchased 2 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2,100, and it can be sold for $2,500 at this time. Thus, the annual depreciation expense is $2,100/6 = $350 per year. If the old machine is not replaced, it can be sold for $500 at the end of its useful life. Dakuten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $8,000, an estimateduseful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of $800.

A. The Erickson Toy Corporation currently uses an injection moulding machine that was purchased 2 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis toward a $500 salvage value, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2,600, and it can be sold for $3,000 at this time. Assume, for ease of calculation, that the annual depreciation expense is $350 per year. The firm is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $8,000 an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of $800. This machine falls into the MACRS 5-year class (20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 12%, 5%). The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1,000 per year; even so, the new machine much greater efficiency would still cause operating expenses to decline by $1,500 per year. The machine would require that inventories be increased by $2,000 but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $500. The firm’s marginal…
Blossom Inc. wants to purchase a new machine for $25,900, excluding $1,200 of installation costs. The old machine was purchased 5
years ago and had an expected economic life of 10 years with no salvage value. The old machine has a book value of $1,700, and
Blossom Inc. expects to sell it for that amount. The new machine will decrease operating costs by $6,000 each year of its economic life.
The straight-line depreciation method will be used for the new machine for a 6-year period with no salvage value.

- St. Johns River Shipyards welding machine is 15 years old, fully depreciated, and has no salvage value. However, even though it is old, it is still functional as originally designed and can be used for quite a while longer. A new welder will cost 182,500 and have an estimated life of 8 years with no salvage value. The new welder will be much more efficient, however, and this enhanced efficiency will increase earnings before depreciation from 27,000 to 74,000 per year. The new machine will be depreciated over its 5-year MACRS recovery period, so the applicable depreciation rates are 20.00%, 32.00%, 19.20%, 11.52%, 11.52%, and 5.76%. The applicable corporate tax rate is 25%, and the project cost of capital is 12%. What is the NPV if the firm replaces the old welder with the new one?arrow_forwardMontello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000. The truck has a salvage value of $6,000 and is expected to be driven for 125,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method, and in year one the company expects the truck to be driven for 26,000 miles; in year two, 30,000 miles; and in year three, 40,000 miles. Consider how the purchase of the truck will impact Montellos depreciation expense each year and what the trucks book value will be each year after depreciation expense is recorded.arrow_forwardAlfredo Company purchased a new 3-D printer for $900,000. Although this printer is expected to last for ten years, Alfredo knows the technology will become old quickly, and so they plan to replace this printer in three years. At that point, Alfredo believes it will be able to sell the printer for $15,000. Calculate yearly depreciation using the double-declining-balance method.arrow_forward
- A certain corn mill decided to sell its old engine which has been used for 5 years costing P7,200 new. The average operating cost per year thus far has been P4,200. The replacement costing P12,000 has an estimated life of 15 years, estimated annual operating cost 20% lower than that of the old engine. If interest is 5% and using straight-line depreciation, how much must the old engine be sold if its working life and its salvage value have been assumed as 15 years and P500, respectively? Actual total cost for the old engine considering depreciation, interest and operation is P347 less than that of the new. Salvage value of the replacement is P800.

The machine had an expected life of 10 years at the time of purchase, and it is being depreciated by the straight-line method by $8,000 per year. If the machine is not replaced, it can be sold for $5,000 at the end of its useful life. A new machine can be purchased for $170,000, including installation costs. During its 5-year life, it will reduce cash operating expenses by $55,000 per year. Sales are not expected to change. At the end of its useful life, the machine is estimated to be worthless. The new machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase. The old machine can be sold today for $55,000. The firm's tax rate is 25%. The appropriate WACC is 9%. a.

- Q- vipularrow_forwardThe company XYZ is planning to replace an old production line with a new one. The old production line was acquired 5 years ago and it was purchased for $ 80,000. The total economic life of the machine is 8 years and the company uses straight line depreciation (the book value at the end of the economic life is zero). The old production line could be sold today at its book value. After four years, the market value of the old machine is expected to be $10,000 while the book value would be $ 0 (e.g. it is fully depreciated in accounts for tax purposes). The new production line requires an investment of $ 150,000. Similarly, the new equipment will be fully depreciated for tax purposes over its 4 year useful life, but the market value of the production line after four years can still be expected to be $ 25,000. In addition, it can be expected that replacing the old equipment with a new one will increase investments into inventories by $ 22,000 which will be recovered by the end of the…arrow_forwardA CNC machine was purchased 2 years ago for $16,000; now it has been depreciated by straight line depreciation using a 4-year life and zero savage value. Because of recent innovation in the machining technology the current price of the machine has been reduced to $12,000. Market value of the used old machine is $3,000.

- Georgia Ceramic Company has an automatic glaze sprayer that has been used for the past 10 years. The sprayer can be used for another 10 years and will have a zero salvage value at that time. The annual operating and maintenance costs for the sprayer amount to $15,000 per year. Due to an increase in business, a new sprayer must be purchased, either in addition to or as a replacement for the old sprayer. Option 1: H the old sprayer is retained, a new, smaller capacity sprayer willbe purchased at a cost of $48,000; this new sprayer will have a $5.000 salvage value in I 0 years and annual operating and maintenance costs of $12.000. The old sprayer has a current market value of $6.000.Option 2: If the old sprayer is sold, a new sprayer of larger capacity will bepurchased for $84,000. This sprayer will have a $9,000 salvage value in 10years and annual operating and maintenance costs of $24,000.Which option should be selected at MARR = 12%?arrow_forward2. PDF Corp. needs to replace an old lathe with a new, more efficient model. The old lathe was purchased for $50,000 nine years ago and has a current book value of $5,000. (The old machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over a ten-year useful life.) The new lathe costs $100,000. It will cost the company $10,000 to get the new lathe to the factory and get it installed. The old machine will be sold as scrap metal for $2,000. The new machine is also being depreciated on a straight-line basis over ten years. Sales are expected to increase by $8,000 per year while operating expenses are expected to decrease by $12,000 per year. PDF's marginal tax rate is 40%. Additional working capital of $3,000 is required to maintain the new machine and higher sales level. The new lathe is expected to be sold for $5,000 at the end of the project's ten-year life.
