Be-low Mining, Inc., is trying to decide whether it should purchase or lease new earthmoving equipment. If purchased, the equipment will cost $175,000 and will be used 6 years, at which time it can be sold for $72,000. At Year 3, an overhaul costing $20,000 must be performed. The equipment can be leased for $30,000 per year. Be-low will not be responsible for the midlife overhaul if the equipment is leased. If the equipment is purchased, it will be leased to other mining companies when possible; this is expected to yield revenues of $15,000 per year. The annual operating cost regardless of the decision will be approximately equal. What would you recommend if the MARR is 6%?
A Company is seeking financial advice as to whether to replace its old equipment. Some of its printing machines have reached the end of their useful working life and they are considering whether to replace them with the latest computer-based equipment. Such equipment will be costly, but the firm expects to be able to reduce its staffing levels to compensate. There are two options currently under review. Under the first option, the firm will purchase a standard piece of equipment at a cost of £10,000 payable now. Over the next five years, however, the firm expects to be able to reduce its staffing costs by £3,500 per year, in the first three years, and then by £3,000 in year 4 and £2,500 in year 5. At the end of the five years, the equipment would have reached the end of its life and would need replacing. Under the second option, the firm would purchase a slightly more sophisticated piece of equipment for an initial cost of £12,000. In the first two years, staff cost savings is…

- Fidelity Life Insurance has a document imaging system that needs replacement. A local salesperson quoted a cost of $12,000 with an estimated salvage of $800 after 5 or more years. If the system is expected to save $2000 per year in clerical time, find the payback time at 10% per year. As a practice, the office manager purchases equipment only when the payback is less than 8 years. Otherwise, he prefers to lease. Should the imaging system be purchased or leased?arrow_forwardStraight-Line is a company that does land surveys and engineering consulting. They have an opportunity to purchase new computer equipment that will allow them to render their drawings and surveys much more quickly.

- Your company is deciding between leasing or selling an older piece of equipment. Information related to the decision is provided below: Leasing the Equipment Book value: $82,000 Remaining useful life: 5 years Annual leasing revenue: $10,000 Expected annual repairs: $2,000 Legal fees: $1,000 Advertising fees: $500 Selling the Equipment Selling price: $21,000 Legal fees: $1,000 Advertising fees: $500 What is the differential profitability of leasing the equipment?arrow_forwardThe Capitalpoor Company is considering purchasing a business machine for $100,000. An alternative is to rent it for $35,000 at the beginning of each year. The rental would include all repairs and service. If the machine is purchased, a comparable repair and service contract can be obtained for $1,000 per year. The salesperson of the business machine firm has indicated that the expected useful service life of this machine is five years, with zero market value, but the company is not sure how long themachine will actually be needed. If the machine is rented, the company can cancel the lease at the end of any year. Assuming an income tax rate of 25%, a straight-line depreciation charge of $20,000 for each year the machine is kept, and an after-tax MARR of 10%, prepare an appropriate analysis to help the firm decide whether it is more desirable to purchase or rent.arrow_forwardNCC is a company. The company needs a new machine that can eitherleased or purchased. If it is purchased, the purchase price is 400,000 dollar. After 5 years, the machine can be sold for 180,000 dollar. the other option is leasing, where the leasing fee is paid once at the end of each year duringthis five-year period, however, there is no residual value. All payments for repairs, maintenance and others payments for operation are equal for both options. What is the maximum annual leasing fee that can be paid if leasing is to be financially equivalent to the alternative to buy the machine and then sell it for 180,000 dollar at the end of year 5 about the company applies a discount rate of 10% instead of leasing it for five years.arrow_forward
- Hayden Inc. has a number of copiers that were bought four years ago for $25,000. Currently maintenance costs $2,500 a year, but the maintenance agreement expires at the end of two years, and thereafter, the annual maintenance charge will rise to $8,500. The machines have a current resale value of $8,500, but at the end of year 2, their value will have fallen to $4,000. By the end of year 6, the machines will be valueless and would be scrapped.Hayden is considering replacing the copiers with new machines that would do essentially the same job. These machines cost $30,000, and the company can take out an eight-year maintenance contract for $1,500 a year. The machines would have no value by the end of the eight years and would be scrapped.Both machines are depreciated using seven-year straight-line depreciation, and the tax rate is 40%.
