Question

You are considering a four-year project to improve production efficiency of your press. Buying a new machine press for Rs 530.000 is estimated to result in Rs 205,000 in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class, and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of Rs 90,000. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of Rs 20,000, along with an additional Rs 3,000 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. If the tax rate is 35 percent and discount rate is 9 percent, should you buy and install the machine press?
