Your firm has purchased an injection molding machine at a cost of $100,000. The machine's useful life is estimated at 8 years. Your accounting department has estimated the capital cost for this machine at about $25,455 per year. If your firm's minimum acceptable rate of return is 20%, how much salvage value did the accounting department assume at the end of 8 years? Use Capital Recovery method.

Charlie has a project for which he had determined a present worth of $56,620. He now has to calculate the IRR for the project, but unfortunately he has lost complete information about the cash flows. He knows only that the project has a five-year service life and a first cost of $190,000, that a set of equal cash flows occurred at the end of each year, and that the MARR used was 10 percent. What is the IRR for this project?

You are considering a hydraulic excavator. This machine will have an estimated service life of 10 years, with a salvage value of 10% of the investment cost. Its expected savings from annual operating and maintenance costs are estimated to be SR 60,000. To expect a 14% rate of return on investment, what would be the maximum amount that you are willing to pay for the machine: (Choose the closest answer) Hint: solve for the capital cost (I) by equating recovery cost (CR) with operating and maintenance cost (OC). a) SR 297,594 b) SR 355,104 c) SR 250,417 d) SR 321,643 e) SR 356,218
Covington Corporation purchased a vibratoryfinishing machine for $20,000 in year 0. The usefullife of the machine is 10 years, at the end of whichthe machine is estimated to have a salvage value ofzero. The machine generates net annual revenuesof $6,000.

Ten years ago, Johnson Recovery purchased a wrecker for $330, 000 to move disabled 18-wheelers. He received a salvage value of $25, 000 after 10 years of use. During this 10-year period, his average annual revenue totaled $60, 000. a) Did he recover his investment at 12% per year return? In other words, does the Annual Equivalent Value of the benefits exceed the Capital Recovery cost at an interest rate of 12%? b) Suppose Johnson moves, on average, 250 disabled 18-wheelers each year. What is his average equivalent benefit/cost per vehicle moved? c) Now, incorporate annual operating and maintenance costs into your analysis. If the annual O&M cost was $5, 000 the first year and increased by a constant 10% per year, what is the annual equivalent worth at 12% per year?
