To determine

Introduction: The variability between present value of all cash outflow and present value of all cash inflow is known as net present value (NPV). The discount rate at which the net present value is equal to zero is knows as Internal rate of return (IRR). The ratio of income and capital gain is known as simple rate of return.

To compute: The net annual cost saving.

Answer to Problem 7.30P

The annual net cost saving if the robot is purchased is $580,000.

Explanation of Solution

Annual saving inventory carrying costs $210,000

Saving in labor cost is 25000 direct labor hour each year the labor rate is $16 per hour

    ParticularAmount
    Saving in labor costs 400,000
    Saving in inventory carrying cost210,000
    Total 610,000
    Less: increase in power and maintenance costs 30,000
    Annual net cost saving 580,000

The annual net cost saving if the robot is purchased is $580,000.

Explanation of Solution

  1. The new automated machine gives intangible benefits such as speed reliability and high quality, more variety of products, reduction in inventories etc.
  2. These intangible benefits will result in saving costs from the reduced labor hours.

  3. Net present value excluding intangible benefits (negative)- ($148,520)
