I like driving small cars and I buy nearly identical ones whenever the old one
needs replacing. Typically, I trade in my old car for a new one costing about
$20000. Standard maintenance and repair costs are expected to be $500 in the
first year (at the end of the year), $750 in the second year, increasing by $500
per year thereafter. Assume interest is 8% and straight line depreciation with a
salvage value for the vehicle of $4000 after four years.

An iron ore of 50x10^6 ton was produced during 15 years and has been sold for $100 per ton Estimate the required investment if 0.4 turnover ratio was considered. If produced ton costs $28, what would be the net present value of the project when 8% safe rate and 15% rate of return assuming that the Investment will be depreciated within 15 years?
How do you calculate the PVIFA for the equation: EAC = NPV / Annutiy factor
How would you use the financial calculator to solve for EAC and PVIFA?
You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron I costs $270,000, has a three-year life, and has pre-tax operating costs of $69,000 per year. The Techron II costs $475,000, has a five-year life, and has pre-tax operating costs of $36,000 per year. Both milling machines are in Class 8 (CCA rate of 20 percent per year). Assume a salvage value of $45,000. If your tax rate is 35 percent and your discount rate is 10 percent, compute the EAC for both machines. Which do you prefer? Why?

- Peachtree Construction Company, a highway contractor, is considering the purchase of a new trench excavator that costs 300000 and can dig a 3-foot-wide trench at the rate of 16 feet per hour. The contractor gets paid according to the usage of the equipment, 100 per hour. The expected average annual usage is 500 hours, and maintenance and operating costs will be 10 per hour. The contractor will depreciate the equipment by using a five-year MACRS, units-of-production method. At the end of five years, the excavator will be sold for 100000. Assuming the contractor’s marginal tax rate is 25% per year, determine the annual after-tax cash flow. In excel.arrow_forwardYou bought a car 5 years ago for $30,000. This type of car is known to depreciate at a compounded annual rate of 8% per year (given normal mileage and wear-and-tear). If your car depreciated at this rate, how much is it worth today?

- Mrs. Sally Selfish's company is considering a project that has a 10 year life and cost GHC 5000. It would save GHC 1.000 per year in operating cost and increase revenue by GHC 600 per year. It would be financed with a 10 year loan with an interest of 8% per year. The salvage value for the newly purchased equipment is zero. If the minimum annual rate of return (MARR) or hurdle rate is 14% and the tax rate is 25%, what is the net present value (NPV) of the project.
