Your company is contemplating the purchase of a large stamping machine. The machine will cost $180,000. With additional transportation and installation costs of $5,000 and $10,000, respectively, the cost basis for depreciation purposes is $195,000. Its MV at the end of five years is estimated as $40,000. The IRS has assured you that this machine will fall under a three-year MACRS class life category. The justifications for this machine include $40,000 savings per year in labor and $30,000 savings per year in reduced materials. The before-tax MARR is 20% per year, and the effective income tax rate is 40%. Use this information to solve, The taxable income for year three is most nearly (a) $5,010 (b) $16,450 (c) $28,880 (d) $41,120 (e) $70,000.

- Madison Manufacturing is considering a new machine that costs $350,000 and would reduce pre-tax manufacturing costs by $110,000 annually. Madison would use the 3-year MACRS method to depreciate the machine, and management thinks the machine would have a value of $33,000 at the end of its 5-year operating life. The applicable depreciation rates are 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81%, and 7.41%. Working capital would increase by $35,000 initially, but it would be recovered at the end of the project's 5-year life. Madison's marginal tax rate is 25%, and a 10% cost of capital is appropriate for the project. 1. Calculate the project's NPV, IRR, MIRR, and payback. 2. Assume management is unsure about the $110,000 cost savings this figure could deviate by as much as plus or minus 20%. What would the NPV be under each of these extremes? 3.

The only fixed assets it will need to purchase is some machinery which costs $120,000, plus $10,000 to modify it for this project's use. The machinery will be depreciated using the MACRS 5-year property class schedule, and Blue estimates that the machinery could be sold at the end of the third year for $70,000. In addition to expenditures on fixed assets, this project would cause the firm's cash needs to increase by $15,000 and additional raw materials inventory will go up by $5,000, both at Time 0. It also estimates that by the end of Year 1, accounts receivable will rise by $6,000. The new product's sales revenues are expected to be $90,000 each year.

- Salvage Years N 0 Net Expenses Investment A company is consider buying a new machine for $8,550. The manufacturer tells you that the machine, with regular maintenance of around $195 per year, should be able to continue working for 11 years.
