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.

Dittferences between the two images canbe noted, and corrections, as appropriate, can then be made by design engineers
a. You have been asked by management to determine the PW of the EVA of this equipment, assuming the following estimates: capital investment = $326,000; market value at end of year six=$122,000, annual revenues = $122,000; annual expenses = $8,000; equipment life = 6 years;effective income tax rate = 25%, and after-tax MARR=8% per year. MACRS depreciation will be used with a five-year recovery period.b. Compute the PW of the equipment's ATCFs.
An organization completes the purchase of new asset at a cost of $25,000. It has an yearly operating cost of $3,000 for delivery and installation It
has a depreciable life of six (6) years at the end of which the salvage value will be $3,000 Utilizing 200% Declining Balance (DB) only, complete
the table below
If a returm on investment (rate of return) of 10% is requred, what is the minimum annual saving in needed?
If the service life is decreased from six (6) years to five (5) years, what is the minimum annual savings for the firm to acheive a 10% return on
investment?
If the annual operating cost increase by 109%, what will be the minimum annual savings needed?
Round all answers up the the nearest dollar (i.e. $2.322 = $3.00)
