Edwards Manufacturing Company (EMC) is considering replacing one machine with another. The old machine was purchased 3 years ago for an installed cost of $10,000. The new machine costs $24,700 and requires $1,900 in installation costs. Both machines are depreciable using a MACRS five-year recovery period See table attached, for the applicable depreciation percentages.) The firm is subject to a 21% tax rate. In each of the following cases, calculate the initial cash flow for the replacement.
a. EMC sells the old machine for $13,000.
b. EMC sells the old machine for $7,000.
c. EMC sells the old machine for $2,900.
Seco Dame Enterprises (SDE) acquired a robotic saw six years ago at a cost of $10 million. The saw was depreciated under the old ACRS rules to its current book value of $0. Actual salvage value today is estimated to be $2 million. SDE’s average tax rate is 30 percent, and its marginal tax rate is 40 percent. The weighted cost of capital for SDE is 15 percent. A new robotic saw will cost $15 million. It will be depreciated under MACRS rules for a 7-‐year class asset.If SDE acquires the new saw, itestimates that its net working capital investment will decline, due to the reduced need to carry inventories of spare parts for this more reliable machine. Net working capital should decline from a current level of $1 million to a new level of $500,000 as a result of this purchase.
a.Calculate the net investment required to acquire the new saw. b. The new saw is expected to reduce operating costs (exclusive of depreciation) for SDE by $800,000 per year over the asset’s…
Jabba-Dabba-Doo Inc. renovated its warehouses exactly two years ago at a cost of $3.5 million. The renovations were considered leasehold improvements, so the cost was subject to straight-line depreciation for tax purposes. The firm will not need to renovate the warehouses for another three years (from today). Given that the firm’s marginal tax rate is 35% and required return is 12%, what is the present value of the remaining depreciation tax shields on the leasehold improvement? Ignore the half-year rule, and round your answer to the nearest dollar.
Select one:
a. $588,449
b. $359,629
c. $513,181
d. $630,069
e. $210,303

- Two years ago Agro Inc., purchased an ACE generator that cost $300,000. Agro had to pay an additional $10,000 for delivery and installation, and the investment in the generator required the firm to increase its net working capital position by $20,000. The generator, which is being depreciated over a period of 4 years using straight-line depreciation, has a current market value of $71,150. The firm’s marginal tax rate is 40 percent. If the firm liquidates the asset for its current market value, compute the after-tax proceeds from the sale of the asset. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $arrow_forwardArnold Inc. is considering a new project that requires use of an existing warehouse, which the firm acquired three years ago for $1 million and which it currently rents out for $121,000. Rental rates are not expected to change going forward. In addition to using the warehouse, the project requires an upfront investment into machines and other equipment of $1.6 million. This investment can be fully depreciated straight-line over the next 10 years for tax purposes. However, Arnold Inc. expects to terminate the project at the end of eight years and to sell the machines and equipment for $471,000. Finally, the project requires an initial investment into net working capital equal to 10% of predicted first-year sales. Subsequently, net working capital is 10% of the predicted sales over the following year. Sales of protein bars are expected to be $4.6 million in the first year and to stay constant for eight years.
