- answer quick please. Do not need full workarrow_forwardPlease answer as quickly as possiblearrow_forwardA new bottle-capping machine costs 65,000, including 8,000 for installation. The machine is expected to have a useful life of eight years with no salvage value at that time (assume straight-line depreciation). Operating and maintenace costs are expected to be 3,500 for the first year, increasing by 2,000 each year thereafter. Interest is 10%. Construct a spreadsheet that has the following headings: Year, Salvage Value, Maintenance Costs, EAC (Capital Costs), EAC (Operating Costs), and EAC (Total Costs). Compute the EAC (Total Costs) if the bottle capper is kept for n years, n = 1,...,8. What is the economic life of the bottle capper (in years)? Complete the row of the table indicating the economic life for this project NOTE: Use 5 significant figures in your calculations, and round your answers for the table below to the nearest dollar.

- A printing machine is bought at $1 million and is estimated to have a salvage value of $100,000 after 500,000 copies. The annual cost of renting the space for the business is $100,000, power cost per copy is $1.50, and maintenance and paper cost per copy is $3. The expected annual production of the machine is 100,000 copies. Annual interest is 12%. Determine: a. The annual operation and maintenace cost of the machine b. The annual depreciation of the machine. c. Production cost per copy. Show your solution.arrow_forward5.arrow_forwardAn equipment cost $90.000 initially.

The field manager just called and informed you the machine broke down and needs to be replaced ASAP. You have found a new compressor with a purchase price of $97,830 that you can have delivered to the job site that would meet the necessary service requirements. Assume the new asset would have a zero-salvage value at the end of year 6. The other option is to rent a compressor and eliminate the upfront cost. The rental price will be $2,000 per month for 12 months paid at the beginning of each month. The rental agent informed you the cost is anticipated to escalate 5% at the end of each year. Build a 6-year model accounting for the cost escalation after 12 monthly payments. Based on a Present Worth Cost analysis should you lease or purchase? Confirm your selection by calculating an incremental NPV and ROR analysis. Your company uses a 12.68% effective annual interest rate. If there was a…arrow_forward
