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 $181,500 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 $28,000 to $78,500 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 13%. What is the NPV if the firm replaces the old welder with the new one? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Negative value, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign.

- Question Workspace Check My Work New-Project Analysis The president of your company, MorChuck Enterprises, has asked you to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new chromatograph for the firm's R&D department. The equipment's basic price is $64,000, and it would cost another $18,000 to modify it for special use by your firm. The chromatograph, which falls into the MACRS 3-year class, would be sold after 3 years for $28,400. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445 and 0.1481. (Ignore the half-year convention for the straight-line method.) Use of the equipment would require an increase in net working capital (spare parts inventory) of $3,000. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $24,760 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%.

It is inefficient compared to modern standards, though, and so the company is considering replacing it. The new milling machine, at a cost of $108,000 delivered and installed, would also last for 10 years and would produce after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation tax savings) of $19,000 per year. It would have zero salvage value at the end of its life. The project cost of capital is 11%, and its marginal tax rate is 25%. Should Chen buy the new machine? Do not round intermediate calculations.
