Suppose that you have just completed the mechanical design of a high-speed automated palletizer that has an investment cost of $3,000,000. The existing palletizer is quite old and has no salvage value. The market value for the new palletizer is estimated to be $300,000 after seven years. One million pallets will be handled by the palletizer each year during the seven-year expected project life. What net savings per pallet (i.e., total savings less expenses) will have to be generated by the palletizer to justify this purchase in view of a MARR of 20% per year?

The management of Kunkel Company is considering the purchase of a $34,000 machine that would reduce operating costs by $9,000 per year. At the end of the machine's five-year useful life, it will have zero scrap value. The company's required rate of return is 12%. Use Excel or a financial calculator to solve. Required: 1. Determine the net present value of the investment in the machine. (Any cash outflows should be indicated by a minus sign. Round answers to the nearest dollar.) Net present value 2. What is the difference between the total, undiscounted cash inflows and cash outflows over the entire life of the machine? (Any cash outflows should be indicated by a minus sign.)

Ramson Corporation is considering purchasing a machine that would cost $510,510 and have a useful life of 8 years. The machine would reduce cash operating costs by $100,100 per year. The machine would have a salvage value of $107,290 at the end of the project. (Ignore income taxes.) Required: a. Compute the payback period for the machine. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. Compute the simple rate of return for the machine. (Round your intermediate calculations to nearest whole dollar and your final answer to 2 decimal places.) a. Payback period b. Simple rate of return 3 years %

The management of Cooky Electronics Company is considering purchasing equipment to be attached to the main manufacturing machine. The equipment will cost P6,000 and will increase annual cash inflow by P2,200. The useful life of the equipment is 6 years. After 6 years it will have no salvage value. The management wants a 20% return on all investments. Compute net present value (NPV) of this investment project.

The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $69,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $17,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $7,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a salvage value of $23,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value.   Required: 1. What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine? 2. What is the annual incremental net operating income provided by the new bottling machine? 3. What is the amount of the initial investment associated with this project that should be used for calculating the simple rate of return? 4. What is the simple rate of return on the new bottling machine? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place i.e. 0.123 should be considered as 12.3%.)           1. Depreciation expense     2.
