Jefferson Memorial Hospital is an investment center as a division of Hospitals United. During the past year, Jefferson reported an after-tax income of $7 million. Total interest expense was $3,200,000, and the hospital tax rate was 30%. Total assets totaled $70 million, and non-interest-bearing current liabilities were $22,800,000. The required rate of return established by Jefferson is equal to 18% of invested capital. What is the residual income of Jefferson Memorial Hospital?
Consolidated Aluminum is considering the purchase of a new machine that will cost $308,000 and provide the following cash flows over the next five years: $88,000, 92,000, $91,000, $72,000, and $71,000. Calculate the IRR for this piece of equipment. For further instructions on internal rate of return in Excel, see Appendix C.
Filkins Fabric Company is considering the replacement of its old, fully depreciated knitting machine. Two new models are available: Machine 190-3, which has a cost of $190,000, a 3-year expected life, and after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation) of $87,000 per year; and Machine 360-6, which has a cost of $360,000, a 6-year life, and after-tax cash flows of $98,300 per year. Knitting machine prices are not expected to rise because inflation will be offset by cheaper components (microprocessors) used in the machines. Assume that Filkins’ cost of capital is 14%. Should the firm replace its old knitting machine? If so, which new machine should it use? By how much would the value of the company increase if it accepted the better machine? What is the equivalent annual annuity for each machine?

Briggs-Gridley Memorial Hospital, a non-taxpaying entity, is starting a new inpatient heart center on its third floor. The expected patient volume demands will generate $5,000,000 per year in revenues for the next 5 years. The new center will incur operating expenses, excluding depreciation, of $3,000,000 per year for the next 5 years. The initial cost of building and equipment is $7,000,000. Straight-line depreciation is used to estimate depreciation expense, and the building and equipment will be depreciated over a 5 year life to its salvage value of $800,000. The cost of capital for this project is 10%. Compute the NPV to determine the financial feasibility of this project. Compute the IRR to determine the financial feasibility of this project. Compute the NPV to determine the financial feasibility of this project if Briggs-Gridley was a tax-paying entity with a tax rate of 30%.

City Hospital, a nonprofit organization, estimatesthat it can save $28,000 a year in cash operating costs for the next 10 years if it buys a special-purpose eyetestingmachine at a cost of $110,000. No terminal disposal value is expected. City Hospital’s required rate ofreturn is 14%. Assume all cash flows occur at year-end except for initial investment amounts. City Hospitaluses straight-line depreciation. Q.What other factors should City Hospital consider in deciding whether to purchase the special-purposeeye-testing machine?
Marshall Healthcare System is a for-profit entity and is planning to purchase an MRI and ultrasound equipment for its new imaging center.
