- Sadik Industries must install $1 million of new machinery in its Texas plant. It can obtain a 6-year bank loan for 100% of the cost at a 12% interest rate with equal payments at the end of each year. Sadik's tax rate is 37%. The equipment falls in the MACRS 3-year class.

Under the proposed lease terms, the Sadik must pay for insurance, property taxes, and maintenance. Sadik must use the equipment if it is to continue in business, so it will almost certainly want to acquire the property at the end of the lease. If it does, then under the lease terms it can purchase the machinery at its fair market value at Year 3. The best estimate of this market value is $220,000, but it could be much higher or lower under certain circumstances. If purchased at Year 3,…arrow_forwardBig Sky Mining Company must install $1.5 million of new machinery in its Nevada mine.

(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 15%. 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 $400,000 payments at the end of each of the next 4 years.
