Oregon Machinery Company (OMC) has decided to acquire a screw machine. One alternative is to lease the machine on a three-year contract for a lease payment of $22,000 per year with payments to be made at the beginning of each year. The lease would include maintenance. The second alternative is to purchase the machine outright for $97,000, financing the investment with a bank loan for the net purchase price and amortizing the loan over a three-year period at an interest rate of 12% per year (annual payment = $40, 386). Under the borrow-to-purchase arrangement, the company would have to maintain the machine at an annual cost of $6,000, payable at year-end. The machine falls into the seven-year MACRS classification, and it has a salvage value of $45,000, which is the expected market value at the end of year 3. After three years, the company plans to replace the machine regardless of whether it leases or buys. The tax rate is 40%, and the MARR is 15%.(a) What is OMC's PW cost of…
Khulna Development Authority (KDA) owns 50 hectares of valuable land has decided to lease the land to a company. The primary objective is to obtain long-term income to finance ongoing projects 5 and 15 years from the present time. KDA makes a proposal to the company that it pays $25,000 per year for 20 years beginning 1 year from now, plus $10,000 five years from now and $15,000 fifteen years from now. If the company wants to pay off its lease immediately to KDA, how much should it pay now if the investment is to make 12% per year?

- A two-year project has an initial requirement of $500,000 for fixed assets and $100,000 for net working capital. The fixed assets will be depreciated using MACRS and the fixed asset falls into the three-year MACRS class. Depreciation rates for years 1 and 2 are 0.3333 and 0.4445. The estimated salvage value is $120,000. All of the net working capital will be recouped at the end of the 2 years. Management estimates that sales revenues less costs will be $700,000 per year for years 1 and 2. The discount rate is 9 percent and tax rate is 35 percent. What is the initial investment for this project? $513,327.50 ○ $600,000 $1,300,000 $500,000arrow_forwardASF wishes to acquire a 100,000 multifacet cutting machine the machine has a useful life of eight years, after which there is no expected salvage value. If ASF were to finance the cutting machine by signing an eight-year lease contract, annual lease payments of $16,000 would be required. The company could also finance the purchase of the machine with a 12 percent term loan having a payment schedule of the same general configuration as the lease payment schedule. The asset falls in the five-year property class for cost recovery (depreciation) purposes, and the company has a 35 percent tax rate. What is the present value of cash outflows for each of these alternatives, using the after-tax cost of debt as the discount rate? Which alternative is preferred?arrow_forwardBowman Corporation is considering an investment in special-purpose equipment to enable the company to obtain a five-year government contract for the manufacture of a special item. The equipment costs $500,000 and would have no salvage value when the contract expires at the end of the five years. Estimated annual operating results of the project are as follows. All revenue and all expenses other than depreciation will be received or paid in cash in the same period as recognized for accounting purposes. Compute the following for Bowman’s proposal to undertake the contract work. Payback period. Return on average investment. Net present value of the proposal to undertake contract work, discounted at an annual rate of 10 percent.arrow_forward
- A company is analyzing the acquisition of a concession. The government provides it for 6 years for an initial investment of $50,000,000 and the export equipment will cost another $50,000,000 (which is acquired in the initial period of the project), with the commitment that in year 8 it will reforest for $250,000,000. The annual income (from year 1 to 6) is $50,000,000. The IOT (Internal rate of opportunity) is 20% per year.

The allowed depreciation deduction during the first year is $4,000 because the equipment falls into the seven-year MACRS property category. (The first-year depreciation rate is 14.29%.) The cost of the goods produced by this NC machine should include a charge for the depreciation of the machine. Suppose the company estimates the following revenues and expenses, including the depreciation for the first operating year:• Gross income = $50,000• Cost of goods sold = $20,000• Depreciation on the NC machine= $4,000• Operating expenses = $6,000Without the project, the company's taxable income from regular business operations amounts to $20 million, which places the company in the highest tax bracket of 35%. Compute the net income from the project during the first year.arrow_forwarda firm is considering a 3-year project with an initial cost of $636,000.

At the end of the project, the equipment will be sold for an estimated $279,000. The tax rate is 35 percent , and the required return is 17 percent . An extra $23,000 of inventory will be required for the life of the project. Annual sales are estimated at $379,000 with costs of 247,000. What is the total cash flow for Year 3?

- Big Sky Mining Company must install $1.5 million of new machinery in its Nevada mine. It can obtain a bank loan for 100% of the purchase price, or it can lease the machinery. Assume that the following facts apply: 1. The machinery falls into the MACRS 3-year class. (The depreciation rates for Year 1 through Year 4 are equal to 0.3333, 0.4445, 0.1481, and 0.0741.) 2. Under either the lease or the purchase, Big Sky must pay for insurance, property taxes, and maintenance. 3. The firm's tax rate is 25%. 4. The loan would have an interest rate of 14%. It would be nonamortizing, with only interest paid at the end of each year for four years and the principal repaid at Year 4. 5. The lease terms call for $390,000 payments at the end of each of the next 4 years. 6. Big Sky Mining has no use for the machine beyond the expiration of the lease, and the machine has an estimated residual value of $200,000 at the end of the 4th year. a. What is the cost of owning?

The pay¬ment schedule has two large payments in the first years with continuing payments thereafter.

Determine the capitalized cost at 8% per year.arrow_forward. The Randolph company has decided to acquire a new truck. One alternative is to lease the truck on a 4 year guideline contract for a lease payment of $10,000 per year, with payments to be made at the end of each year. The lease would include maintenance. Alternatively, the company could purchase the truck outright for $40,000 (depreciated under Straight Line Method), financing the purchase by a bank loan for the net purchase price and amortizing the loan over a 4-year period at an interest rate of 10% per year. Under the borrow to purchase arrangement, the company would have to maintain the truck at a cost of $1,000 per year, payable at year end. It has residual value of $10,000, which is the expected market value after 4 years, when the company plans to replace the truck irrespective of whether it leases or buys. The tax rate is 40%. So what is the company's PV cost of leasing? What is the company's PV cost of owning? Should the truck be leased or purchased?arrow_forward
- On March 1, 2024, a company entered into an agreement with the state to obtain the rights to operate a mineral mine for $6 million. The mine is expected to produce 155,000 tons of mineral. As part of the agreement, the company agrees to restore the land to its original condition after mining operations are completed in approximately five years. Management has provided the following possible outflows for the restoration costs that will occur five years from now: (PV of $1.
