- A manufacturing firm is making auto parts. The machine operators do the packaging and fill the shipping boxes. Each box should contain 60 parts, but the operators fill the boxes by eye, so the average parts per box is 63. Each auto part costs $1. The company realizes that they are wasting parts by overfilling the boxes and decides to automate the packaging which reduces the average parts per box to 60. The equipment would cost $65,000 and SL depreciation with 7-year depreciable life and $10,000 salvage value would be used. Cost of maintaining the equipment is $8,000 annually. The firm manufactures 800K auto parts each year. The combined federal and state incremental tax rate is 30%. Assume a 7-year analysis period and MARR of 10%. 1.

- Difend Cleaners has been considering the purchase of an industrial dry-cleaning machine. The existing machine is operable for three more years and will have a zero disposal price. If the machine is disposed now, it may be sold for $170,000. The new machine will cost $360,000 and an additional cash investment in working capital of $170,000 will be required. The new machine will reduce the average amount of time required to wash clothing and will decrease labor costs. The investment is expected to net $130,000 in additional cash inflows during the first year of acquisition and $290,000 each additional year of use. The new machine has a three-year life, and zero disposal value. These cash flows will generally occur throughout the year and are recognized at the end of each year.

- Kingsville plans to buy a street-cleaning machine. A used cleaning vehicle will cost $80,000 and have a $10,000 salvage value at the end of its five year life. A new system with advanced features will cost $160,000 and have a $45,000 salvage value at the end of its five year life. The new system is expected to reduce labor hours compared with the used system. Current street cleaning activity requires the used system to operate 8 hours per day for 20 days per month. Labor costs $50 per hour and MARR is 12% per year. Find the breakeven labor hours for the new system.

These collars cost $0.50 each, and the company can get enough of them to go back and fix the collars on the recently ruined batch, plus put some into the warehouse for a future batch. In order to fix the botched T-shirts, though, Metlock-T will need to incur an extra $2 per shirt in labor costs to carefully remove the bad collars and re-attach the new ones.
