Jonfran Company manufactures three different models of paper shredders including the waste container, which serves as the base. While the shredder heads are different for all three models, the waste container is the same. The number of waste containers that Jonfran will need during the following years is estimated as follows: The equipment used to manufacture the waste container must be replaced because it is broken and cannot be repaired. The new equipment would have a purchase price of 945,000 with terms of 2/10, n/30; the companys policy is to take all purchase discounts. The freight on the equipment would be 11,000, and installation costs would total 22,900. The equipment would be purchased in December 20x4 and placed into service on January 1, 20x5. It would have a five-year economic life and would be treated as three-year property under MACRS. This equipment is expected to have a salvage value of 12,000 at the end of its economic life in 20x9. The new equipment would be more efficient than the old equipment, resulting in a 25 percent reduction in both direct materials and variable overhead. The savings in direct materials would result in an additional one-time decrease in working capital requirements of 2,500, resulting from a reduction in direct material inventories. This working capital reduction would be recognized at the time of equipment acquisition. The old equipment is fully depreciated and is not included in the fixed overhead. The old equipment from the plant can be sold for a salvage amount of 1,500. Rather than replace the equipment, one of Jonfrans production managers has suggested that the waste containers be purchased. One supplier has quoted a price of 27 per container. This price is 8 less than Jonfrans current manufacturing cost, which is as follows: Jonfran uses a plantwide fixed overhead rate in its operations. If the waste containers are purchased outside, the salary and benefits of one supervisor, included in fixed overhead at 45,000, would be eliminated. There would be no other changes in the other cash and noncash items included in fixed overhead except depreciation on the new equipment. Jonfran is subject to a 40 percent tax rate. Management assumes that all cash flows occur at the end of the year and uses a 12 percent after-tax discount rate. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule of cash flows for the make alternative. Calculate the NPV of the make alternative. 2. Prepare a schedule of cash flows for the buy alternative. Calculate the NPV of the buy alternative. 3. Which should Jonfran domake or buy the containers? What qualitative factors should be considered? (CMA adapted)
Hillsong Inc. manufactures snowsuits. Hillsong is considering purchasing a new sewing machine at a cost of $2.45 million. Its existing machine was purchased five years ago at a price of $1.8 million; six months ago, Hillsong spent $55,000 to keep it operational. The existing sewing machine can be sold today for $240,352. The new sewing machine would require a one-time, $85,000 training cost. Operating costs would decrease by the following amounts for years 1 to 7: Year 1 $390,600 2 400,200 3 410,000 4 425,200 5 432,400 6 435,500 7 436,300 The new sewing machine would be depreciated according to the declining-balance method at a rate of 20%. The salvage value is expected to be $380,500. This new equipment would require maintenance costs of $94,900 at the end of the fifth year. The cost of capital is 9%.

DelRay Foods must purchase a new gumdrop machine. Two machines are available. Machine 7745 has a first cost of $10,000, an estimated life of 10 years, a salvage value of $1,000, and annual operating costs estimated at $0.01 per 1,000 gumdrops. Machine A37Y has a first cost of $8,000, a life of 10 years, and no salvage value. Its annual operating costs will be $300 regardless of the number of gumdrops produced. MARR is 6%/yr, and 30 million gumdrops are produced each year. Based on an internal rate of return analysis, which machine (if either) should be recommended?

Replace equipment A machine with a book value of $86,000 has an estimated five-year life. A proposal is offered to sell the old machine for $40,500 and replace it with a new machine at a cost of $67,000. The new machine has a five-year life with no residual value. The new machine would reduce annual direct labor costs from $10,300 to $9,700. This information has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file. Open the spreadsheet, perform the required analysis, and input your answers in the questions below. Prepare a differential analysis dated April 11 on whether to continue with the old machine (Alternative 1) or replace the old machine (Alternative 2). If an amount is zero, enter "0".

Question The production department of Y Company is planning to purchase a new machine to improve product quality. The company’s management accountant is currently evaluating two options- Buy the machine OR Rent it. Following information is available: The company has to pay £3,200 to set up the machine. Insurance cost £450 per annum. If it is bought, the new machine is depreciated on reducing balance basis at the rate of 25%. After various calculations, the company has to pay £4,200 maintenance cost every year and estimated repair cost would be £300 per year. The firm will have to sell old machines, which had cost £65,000 six years ago. Apart from the above information, the £500 of delivery cost is incurred for this purchase option. If it is rented, £ 4,650 per year to pay as rent. There is no cost for repair and maintenance. However, the firm is required to pay the administration charge of £650 with this rent option. For rent option, the delivery cost remains at 20% of the £ 500…
