The X Company is considering purchasing a business machine for $100,000. An alternative is to rent it for $35,000 at the beginning of each year. The rental would include all repairs and services. If the machine is purchased, a comparable repair and service contract can be obtainedfor $1,000 per year. The salesperson of the business machine firm has indicated that the expected useful service life of this machine is five years, with zero market value, but the company is not sure how long the machine will be needed. If the machine is rented, the company can cancel the lease at the end of any year. Assuming an income tax rate of 25%, a straight-line depreciation charge of $20,000 for each year the machine is kept, and an after-tax MARR of 10%, prepare an appropriate analysis to help the firm decide whether it is more desirable to purchase or rent.
DJDC Machinery has been making a part for its industrial rotary gear shaving machine. The engineers are asked to investigate alternative ways of obtaining the part, as the unit cost for the part currently is not competitive in the marketplace. DJDC needs 25,000 parts per year for the next three years. At that point, any capital equipment could be sold. DJDC tax rate is 40%, and its interest rate is 12%.• Option A: Continue to produce the part with the old machine. The machine has been fully depreciated. The current machine could be sold for $6,000 in three years. Making the part with the old machine involves the following: Variable costs for the part are $4 for direct materials, $3 for direct labor, and $2 for variable manufacturing overhead.• Option B: Purchase the part from outside for $13 per part, including shipping.• Option C: Replace the old machine with the new model. The newer model would cost $55,000 and would depreciate. The new machine, if purchased, could be sold for…

- Wei-Ping's consul ting firm needs new quarters. A downtown office building is ideal. The company can either buy or lease it. To buy the office building will cost $6 000 000. If the building is leased, the lease fee is $400 000 payable at the beginning of each year. In either case, the company must pay city taxes, maintenance, and utilities. Wei-Ping figures that the company needs the office space for only 15 years. Therefore, it will either sign a 15-year lease or buy the building. If it buys the building, it will then sell the building after 15 years. The value of the building at that time is estimated to be $15 000 000. What rate of return will Wei-Ping's firm receive by buying the office building instead of leasing it?

- 6. After spending $10,400 on client-development, you have just been offered a big production contract by a new client. The contract will add $206,000 to your revenues for each of the next five years and it will cost you $99,000 per year to make the additional product. You will have to use some existing equipment and buy new equipment as well. The existing equipment is fully depreciated, but could be sold for $49,000 now. If you use it in the project, it will be worthless at the end of the project. You will buy new equipment valued at $28,000 and use the 5-year MACRS schedule to depreciate it. It will be worthless at the end of the project. Your current production manager earns $85,000 per year. Since she is busy with ongoing projects, you are planning to hire an assistant at $44,000 per year to help with the expansion. You will have to immediately increase your inventory from $20,000 to $30,000. It will return to $20,000 at the end of the project.

Machine A costs $10 million but realizes after-tax inflows of $4 million per year for 4 years. After 4 years, the machine must be replaced. Machine B costs $15 million and realizes after-tax inflows of $3.5 million per year for 8 years, after which it must be replaced. Assume that machine prices are not expected to rise because inflation will be offset by cheaper components used in the machines. The cost of capital is 10%. A.

- (c) If Sarasota could lease the manufacturing facilities to another company for $25,200 per year, what would be the net total cost to outsource production of the part? Net cost to buy $arrow_forwardces Esquire Company needs to acquire a molding machine to be used in its manufacturing process. Two types of machines that would be appropriate are presently on the market. The company has determined the following: Machine A could be purchased for $69,000. It will last 10 years with annual maintenance costs of $2,200 per year. After 10 years the machine can be sold for $7,245. Machine B could be purchased for $57,500. It also will last 10 years and will require maintenance costs of $8,800 in year three, $11,000 in year six, and $13,200 in year eight. After 10 years, the machine will have no salvage value. Required: Assume an interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation and that maintenance costs are paid at the end of each year. Ignore income tax considerations. Calculate the present value of Machine A & Machine B. Which machine Esquire should purchase? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations.

If they launch the product, they will use an existing facility in the production process, which they previously acquired for $4 million. They currently lease it to a third party, and they expect to continue to do so if they don't use it for the new product. They rent it out for $102,000 and they expect that to remain flat for the foreseeable future. The project requires immediate investment in CAPX of $1.3 million, which will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the next 10 years for tax purposes. The project will end after eight years, at which time they expect to salvage some of the initital CAPX and sell it for $469,000. The project requires immediate working capital investments equal to 10% of predicted first-year sales. After that, working capital will remain at 10% of the following year's expected sales. They expect sales to be $4.6 million in the first year and to stay constant for eight years. Total…arrow_forward
