- New-Project Analysis The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer’s base price is $1,080,000, and it would cost another $22,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $605,000. The MACRS rates for the first 3 years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $15,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $380,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell’s marginal tax rate is 35%. What is the Year-0 cash flow? What are the net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3? What is the additional Year-3 cash flow (i.e., the after-tax salvage and the return of working capital)? If the project’s cost of capital is 12%, should the machine be purchased?arrow_forwardREPLACEMENT ANALYSIS St. Johns River Shipyards is considering the replacement of an 8-year-old riveting machine with a new one that will increase earnings from 24,000 to 46,000 per year. The new machine will cost 80,000, and it will have an estimated life of 8 years and no salvage value. The new riveting machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase. The applicable corporate tax rate is 25%, and the firms WACC is 10%. The old machine has been fully depreciated and has no salvage value. Should the old riveting machine be replaced by the new one? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardTalbot Industries is considering launching a new product. The new manufacturing equipment will cost $17 million, and production and sales will require an initial $5 million investment in net operating working capital. The company’s tax rate is 25%. What is the initial investment outlay? The company spent and expensed $150,000 on research related to the new product last year. What is the initial investment outlay? Rather than build a new manufacturing facility, the company plans to install the equipment in a building it owns but is not now using. The building could be sold for $1.5 million after taxes and real estate commissions. What is the initial investment outlay?arrow_forward
- Gina Ripley, president of Dearing Company, is considering the purchase of a computer-aided manufacturing system. The annual net cash benefits and savings associated with the system are described as follows: The system will cost 9,000,000 and last 10 years. The companys cost of capital is 12 percent. Required: 1. Calculate the payback period for the system. Assume that the company has a policy of only accepting projects with a payback of five years or less. Would the system be acquired? 2. Calculate the NPV and IRR for the project. Should the system be purchasedeven if it does not meet the payback criterion? 3. The project manager reviewed the projected cash flows and pointed out that two items had been missed. First, the system would have a salvage value, net of any tax effects, of 1,000,000 at the end of 10 years. Second, the increased quality and delivery performance would allow the company to increase its market share by 20 percent. This would produce an additional annual net benefit of 300,000. Recalculate the payback period, NPV, and IRR given this new information. (For the IRR computation, initially ignore salvage value.) Does the decision change? Suppose that the salvage value is only half what is projected. Does this make a difference in the outcome? Does salvage value have any real bearing on the companys decision?arrow_forwardAverage rate of returncost savings Maui Fabricators Inc. is considering an investment in equipment that will replace direct labor. The equipment has a cost of 125,000 with a 15,000 residual value and an eight-year life. The equipment will replace one employee who has an average wage of 28,000 per year. In addition, the equipment will have operating and energy costs of 5,150 per year. Determine the average rate of return on the equipment, giving effect to straight-line depreciation on the investment.arrow_forwardTalbot Industries is considering launching a new product.

The building could be sold for 1.5 million after taxes and real estate commissions. How would this affect your answer?arrow_forward
- Average rate of returnnew product Hana Inc. is considering an investment in new equipment that will be used to manufacture a smart-phone. The phone is expected to generate additional annual sales of 10,000 units at 300 per unit. The equipment has a cost of 4,500,000, residual value of 500,000, and a 10-year life. The equipment can only be used to manufacture the phone. The cost to manufacture the phone follows: Determine the average rate of return on the equipment.arrow_forwardCaduceus Company is considering the purchase of a new piece of factory equipment that will cost $565,000 and will generate $135,000 per year for 5 years. Calculate the IRR for this piece of equipment. For further instructions on internal rate of return In Excel, see Appendix C.arrow_forwardNet Present Value Talmage Inc. has just completed development of a new printer. The new product is expected to produce annual revenues of 2,700,000. Producing the printer requires an investment in new equipment costing 2,880,000. The printer has a projected life cycle of 5 years. After 5 years, the equipment can be sold for 360,000. Working capital is also expected to increase by 360,000, which Talmage will recover by the end of the new products life cycle. Annual cash operating expenses are estimated at 1,620,000. The required rate of return is 8%. Required: Prepare a schedule of the projected annual cash flows. Calculate the NPV using only discount factors from Exhibit 12B.1 (p. 670). Calculate the NPV using discount factors from both Exhibits 12B.1 and 12B.2 (p. 671).arrow_forward
