A commercial 3D printer is purchased for $340,000. The salvage value of the printer decreases by 50% each year that it is held. The cost to operate and maintain the machine the first year it is used is $13,000; these costs increase by $6,000 each year. What is the optimal replacement interval and minimum EUAC for the printer, assuming a MARR of 15% is used? Click here to access the TVM Factor Table Calculator. ORI: EUAC: $ years

8 years ago a company installed a robot that today has a market value of $ 60,000 and each year it drops $ 2000. For example, at the end of the first year the market value will be $ 58,000 and so it continues to decline. Maintenance costs for the next 4 years are estimated at $ 3000 this year and increasing 10% each year. Determine the marginal cost of extending the service for one year, for the next 4 years if the MARR is 12%. Fill in the blanks with the results. Calculate: a) The loss of market value in year 1 is $ b) Loss in interest in year 1 $ c) The Marginal Cost in year 1 is Show all the procedure for your answer thank you
Peachtree Construction Company, a highway contractor, is considering the purchase of a new trench excavator that costs 300000 and can dig a 3-foot-wide trench at the rate of 16 feet per hour. The contractor gets paid according to the usage of the equipment, 100 per hour. The expected average annual usage is 500 hours, and maintenance and operating costs will be 10 per hour. The contractor will depreciate the equipment by using a five-year MACRS, units-of-production method. At the end of five years, the excavator will be sold for 100000. Assuming the contractor’s marginal tax rate is 25% per year, determine the annual after-tax cash flow. In excel.
If an asset has a first cost of P50,000 with a P10,000 estimated salvage value after 5 years, calculate the annual SL depreciation and tabulate the yearly book value. Please show the solution. Solutions in excel are acceptable.
Eads Industrial Systems Company (EISC) is trying to decide between two different conveyor belt systems. System A costs $427,000, has a 6-year life, and requires $115,000 in pretax annual operating costs. System B costs $502,000, has an 8-year life, and requires $79,000 in pretax annual operating costs. Both systems are to be depreciated straight-line to zero over their lives and will have a zero salvage value. Whichever system is chosen, it will not be replaced when it wears out. The tax rate is 33 percent and the discount rate is 24 percent. Which system should the firm choose and why? a.No option is correct b.System A because its net present value is -$588,792 c.System B because its net present value is -$612,240 d.System A because its net present value is $211,516
One year ago, your company purchased a machine used in manufacturing for $120,000. You have learned that a new machine is available that offers many advantages and that you can purchase it for $160,000 today. The CCA rate applicable to both machines is 40%; neither machine will have any long-term salvage value. You expect that the new machine will produce earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of $40,000 per year for the next ten years. The current machine is expected to produce EBITDA of $23,000 per year. All other expenses of the two machines are identical. The market value today of the current machine is $50,000. Your company's tax rate is 45%, and the opportunity cost of capital for this type of equipment is 12%. What is the NPV of replacement? Should your company replace its year-old machine? //posted before but got wrong answer
Nuclear safety devices installed several years ago have been depreciated from a first cost of $200,000 to zero using the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS). The devices can be sold on the used equipment market for an estimated $15,000, or they can be retained in service for 5 more years with a $9000 upgrade now and an operating expenses (OE) of $6000 per year. The upgrade investment will be depreciated over 3 years with no salvage value. The challenger is a replacement with newer technology at a first cost of $40,000, n = 5 years, and S = 0. The new units will have operating expenses of $7000 per year. Use a 5-year study period, an effective tax rate of 41%, an after-tax minimum acceptable rate of return (MARR) of 18% per year, and an assumption of classical straight line depreciation (no half-year convention) to perform an after-tax AW-based replacement study. The annual worth of the defender is determined to be $ . The annual worth of the challenger is…
