Your company is considering a new computer system with an initial cost of $1 million. When implemented, the system will save $300,000 per year in inventory and administration costs. The system has a service life of five years and is classified in the three-year MACRS category. At the end of the fifth year, its residual value was estimated at $50,000. The system has no impact on net working capital. The marginal tax rate is 40 per cent. The required rate of return is 8 per cent.
A machine costs P150,000 and will have a scrap value of P10000 when retired at the end of 15 years. If money is worth 4%, find the annual investment and the capitalized cost of the machine
The industrial equipment is worth P300,000 has an estimated life of 12 years with a salvage value of P45,000. Compute the book value after 8 years using the sinking fund method assuming I = 10%

- If a project costs $90,000 and is expected to return $24,500 annually, how long does it take to recover the initial investment? What would be the discounted payback period at i=14%? Assume that the cash flows occur continuously throughout the year. The payback period is___________years. (Round to one decimal place.)arrow_forwardA company needs to acquire a machine to increase its production. To do so, you will need to make an initial investment of $150,000. Furthermore, the use of the machine will result in annual operating and maintenance costs of around 2,500.00, for a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of %30,000. At the end of 4 and 8 years, it requires revisions that cost $20,000 and $10,000 respectively. At the end of the fifth year, it must undergo a general renovation at the cost of .$45,000. Under these conditions, what is the Uniform Equivalent Annual Cost generated by the company's acquisition of the machine? Consider an attractive minimum rate of return of 10% per year.arrow_forwardThe first design option needs a machine that has an estimated initial cost of P1,850,000. The machine can be traded in at 18% of the initial cost after 20 years of economic life. The cost of operation and subsequent maintenance are assumed to be P150,000 a year, meanwhile annual tax due is assumed to be 2.5% of initial cost. The second design option shall use a machine that is priced at P1,450,000. It needs an additional payment of 1,600,000 eight years later. The machine needs to be checked for maintenance after one year at a cost of P85,000 and then another year after the initial maintenance, P70,000 is needed for payment. If the economic life is 20 years, and the trade-in value is P600,000, and taxes per annum will be 2% of the first cost, which of the two plans would you recommend? Assume interest rate of 12 percent.arrow_forward

- A UK manufacturer of particle board furniture is considering investing in a new stamping machine. The machine is expected to have a useful life of five years, after which the machine can be sold as scrap for an estimated £5000. The firm plans to issue bonds to pay for the machine and intends to treat the interest rate on the bonds as the relevant discount rate for evaluating the project. The machine will cost the firm £175,000, all of which must be paid at the beginning of the project. The new stamping machine will reduce costs £50,000 per year, for each year of the machineʹs life. The firm treats all the cost savings as if they occur at year end. Should the firm plan to undertake the investment project, bonds will be issued in approximately three months. The firm has estimated the supply and demand for loanable funds given by these equations:LD = 25,000,000 - 125,000,000r LS = 2,500,000 + 62,500,000r(1) Given the information above, should the firm undertake the investment in the…arrow_forwardYou just purchased a pin-inserting machine to relieve some bottleneck problems that have been created in manufacturing a PC board.

- A small manufacturing firm is considering the purchase of a new machine to modernize one of its current production lines. Two types of machines are available on the market. The lives of Machine A and Machine B are four years and six years, respectively, but the firm does not expect to need the service of either machine for more than five years. The machines have the following expected receipts and disbursements: After four years of use, the salvage value for Machine B will be $1,000. The firm always has another option: to lease a machine at $3,000 per year, fully maintained by the leasing company. The lease payment will be made at the beginning of each year.(a) How many decision alternatives are there?(b) Which decision appears to be the best at i = 10%?arrow_forwardAdvanced Electrical Insulator Company is considering replacing a brokeninspection machine, which has been used to test the mechanical strength of electrical insulators with a newer and more efficient one. If repaired, the old machine can be used for another five years although the firm does not expect to realize any salvage value from scrapping it in five years. Alternatively, the firm can sell the machine to another firm in the industry now for $5,000. If the machine is kept, it will require an immediate $1,200 overhaul to restore it to operable condition. The overhaul will neither extend the service life originally estimated nor increase the value of the inspection machine. The operating costs are estimated at $2,000 during the first year and are expected to increase by $1,500 per year thereafter. Future market values are expected to decline by $1,000 per year. The new machine costs $10,000 and will have operating costs of $2,000 in the first year, increasing by $800 per year…arrow_forwardChatham Automotive purchased new electric forklifts to move steel automobile parts two years ago. They cost $80,000 each, including the charging stand. In practice, it was found that they did not hold a charge as long as claimed by the manufacturer, so operating costs are very high. As a result, their current salvage value is about $10,000. Chatham is considering replacing them with propane models. New propane forklifts cost $59,000 each. After one year, they have a salvage value of $40,000 and thereafter decline in value at a declining-balance depreciation rate of 20 percent, as does the electric model from this time on. The MARR is 7 percent. Operating costs for the electric model will be $18,000 this year, rising by 12 percent per year. Operating costs for the propane model will initially be $12,000 over the first year, rising by 12 percent per year. Should Chatham Automotive replace the forklifts now? What is the the minimum total EAC for the electric forklifts and…arrow_forward
