- One year ago, your company purchased a machine used in manufacturing for $105,000. You have learned that a new machine is available that offers many advantages and you can purchase it for $160,000 today. It will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years and has no salvage value. You expect that the new machine will produce a gross margin (revenues minus operating expenses other than depreciation) of $60,000 per year for the next 10 years. The current machine is expected to produce a gross margin of $21,000 per year. The current machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over a useful life of 11 years, and has no salvage value, so depreciation expense for the current machine is $9,545 per year. The market value today of the current machine is $65,000. Your company's tax rate is 40%, and the opportunity cost of capital for this type of equipment is 10%. Should your company replace its year-old machine? The NPV of replacing the year-old machine is $ (Round to the…arrow_forwardMaterial-handling equipment used in the manufacture of grain products (MACRS-GDS 10-year property) is purchased and installed for $180,000. It is placed in service in the middle of the tax year. If it is removed just before the end of the tax year approximately 4.5 years from the date placed in service, determine the depreciation deduction during each of the tax years involved using MACRS-GDS allowances. ———————- Repeat the previous problem if the material-handling equipment is removed just after the tax year, again using MACRS-GDS allowances.arrow_forwardHyundai USA has numerous robotic welders as well as robotic checkers with vision. One underbody robotic welder costing $1,200,000 (7-year property class) was installed and is increasing productivity by 2.5% in one area. The result is a savings of $500,000 per year. Deductible expenses other than depreciation and interest associated with the installed robotic welder are only $120,000. Hyundai borrowed $550,000 at 11% for 5 years. They plan to keep the welder for 8 years. Hyundai’s income-tax rate is 25% and their MARR is 9% after taxes. Determine the PW, IRR, for the investment if: The loan is paid back using Plan 3 Plan 3—make equal principal-plus-interest end-of-period payments.arrow_forward
