Five years ago, a company in New Jersey installed a diesel-electric unit costing $50,000 at a remote site because no dependable electric power was available from a public utility. The company has computed depreciation by the straight-line method with a useful life of 10 years and a zero salvage value. Annual operation and maintenance expenses are $16,000, and property taxes and insurance cost another $3,000 per year. Dependable electric service is now available at an estimated annual cost of $30,000. The company in New Jersey wishes to know whether it would be more economical to dispose of the diesel-electric unit now, when it can be sold for $35,000, or to wait five years when the unit would have to be replaced anyway (with no MV). The company has an effective income tax rate of 50% and tries to limit its capital expenditures to opportunities that will earn at least 15% per year after income taxes.What would you recommend ?

The Erley Equipment Company purchased a machine 5 years ago at a cost of $100,000. The machine had an expected life of 10 years at the time of purchase, and an expected salvage value of $10,000 at the end of the 10 years.

A civil engineer who owns his own design/build/operate company purchased a small crane 3 years ago at a cost of $65,000. At that time, it was expected to be used for 10 years and then traded in for its salvage value of $10,000. Due to increased construction activities, the company would prefer to trade for a new, larger crane now, which will cost $80,000. The company estimates that the old crane can be used, if necessary, for another 3 years, at which time it would have a $17,000 estimated market value. Its current market value is estimated to be $29,000, and if it is used for another 3 years, it will have M&O costs (exclusive of operator costs) of $17,000 per year. Determine the values of P, n, S, and AOC that should be used for the existing crane in a replacement analysis. The value of P is $ . The value of n is years. The value of S is $ . The AOC value is $ per year.
