A corporation purchased a machine for $60,000 three years ago. It had an estimated life of 10 years and an estimated salvage value of $9.200. The current BV of this machine is
$29,000. If the current MVof the machine is $36,500 and the effective income tax rate is 22%, what is the after-tax investment value of the machine? Use the outsider viewpoint.
Choose the correct answer below.
A. $28,400
OB. $38.150
OC. $29,680
OD. $34,850
OE $36,500

A manufacturer purchased and installed a shrink-wrap machine 4 years ago at a cost of $4,000. A new machine is now needed, and one is available for $7,000 less a $1,000 trade-in allowance for the old machine. The market value of the old machine without trade-in on a new model is $500. Which of the four dollar values above is a sunk cost that is irrelevant in a pre-tax engineering economic analysis?

- CS 22 Economicsarrow_forwardA proposed cost-saving device has an installed cost of $570,000. It is in Class 8 (CCA rate = 20%) for CCA purposes. It will actually function for five years, at which time it will have no value. There are no working capital consequences from the investment, and the tax rate is 35%. a. What must the pre-tax cost savings be for us to favour the investment? We require an 11% return. (Hint: This one is a variation on the problem of setting a bid price.)
