- A mining corporation purchased $120,000 of production machinery and depreciated it using 40% bonus depreciation with the balance using 5-year MACRS depreciation, a 5-year depreciable life, and zero salvage value. The corporation is a profitable one that has a 22% combined incremental tax rate. At the end of 5 years the mining company changed its method of operation and sold the production machinery for $40,000. During the 5 years the machinery was used, it reduced mine operation costs by $32,000 a year before taxes. If the company MARR is 12% after taxes, was the investment in the machinery a satisfactory one? Please show every step with formulas and don't use excel.

If, however, an additional $100,000 of instrumentation and remote controls were added, the plant could be run by a single operator. The total before-tax cost of each plant operator is projected at $35,000 per year. The instrumentation and controls will be depreciated by means of a modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS). If this corporation (22% combined corporate tax rate) invests in the additional instrumentation and controls. how long will it take for the after-tax benefits to equal the $100,000 cost? In other words, what is the after-tax payback period? Please write out every step and formula, don't use excel.
