Answer to Problem 50P

Time 0 ATCF for existing asset is $28,875.

Time 0 ATCF for new asset is $76,500.

Explanation of Solution

Old asset

  Annual depreciation =TotalcostSalvageValueYears=500001500010=$3,500

  

  Book Value as at today =50000  3500×7= $25500

  ATCF for Old asset=30000(3000025500)×25%=$28,875

New asset

New asset is entitled to 10% investment tax credit, hence ATCF at Time 0 for new asset will be as follows:

  ATCF = First cost10%investment tax credit          = 85000  10%×85000      = $76,500

Answer to Problem 50P

Time 0 ATCF for existing asset is $25,500.

Time 0 ATCF for new asset is $76,500.

Explanation of Solution

Old asset

  Annual depreciation=TotalcostSalvageValueYears=500001500010=$3,500

  

Book Value as at today = 50000  3500×7

= $25500

  ATCF for Old asset=25500(2550025500)×25%= $25,500

New asset New asset is entitled to 10% investment tax credit, hence ATCF at Time 0 for new asset will be as follows:

  ATCF = First cost  10% investment tax credit          = 85000  10%85000          = $76,500
