Consider a $10,000 machine that will reduce pretax operating costs by $3,000 per year over a 5-year period. Assume no changes in

net working capital and a zero scrap value after five years. For simplicity, assume straight-line depreciation to zero, a marginal tax rate of 34 percent, and a required return of 10 percent. The net present value of acquiring this machine is:A) $83.B) $449.C) $689.D) $827.E) $1,235.

Answer:

A) $83

Explanation:

First, find aftertax OCF per year

aftertax OCF = (Operating benefit - depreciation)*(1-tax) +depreciation

Depreciation per year = 10,000/5 = 2,000

Tax = 34%

aftertax OCF per year = (3,000 - 2,000)*(1-0.34) + 2,000

= 660 +2,000

= 2,660

Next, find the PV of the aftertax OCF per year. It is an annuity;

PMT = 2,660

N = 5

I/Y = 10%

FV = 0

then CPT PV = 10,083.493

Subtract the initial cost of the machine to find the Net Present Value (NPV);

NPV = -$10,000 + $10,083.493

NPV = $83.493

Financial data for Stirling Inc. for last year are as follows:
Tom [10]

Answer:

profit margin: 6.04%

Assets turnover: 2.08

ROI 25.89%

Residual Income 137,330

Explanation:

<u><em>profit margin:</em></u>

income/sales = 326,480/5,404,000 = 0.060414507 = 6.0414507%

<u><em>Assets turnover:</em></u>

\frac{net \: sales}{average \: assets} \\\\where:\\average \: assets = \frac{ending + beginning}{2}

(2,561,000 + 2,629,000)/2 = 2,595,000 average assets

5,404,000/2,595,000 = 2.082466281 Assets TO

<u><em>ROI</em></u>

\frac{net \: income}{average \: equity} \\\\where:\\average \: equity= \frac{ending + beginning}{2}

(1,206,000+1,316,000)/2 = 1,261,000 average equity

326,480/1,261,000 = 25.890563%

<u>Residual Income:</u>

current income - income at desired RoR

That means calculate which income generates a ROI of 15% which is the minimum required return:

ROI = income / equity = 0.15

X/1,261,000 = 0.15

X=1,261,000 x 0.15 = 189,150

Now we calculate the diference between this number and the current income.

326,480 - 189,150 = 137,330 Residual Income

A garment manufacturing company makes 380,000 articles per year. Each article takes 95 minutes of direct labor at the rate of $9
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The maximum amount the company should pay for the new machine is $1,567,500 if it wants to break even by the end of the first year

Explanation:

Number of article (N) = 380.000

Time for each articles (T) = 95 minutes = 1.583 hours

Direct Labour Cost (D1) = $9 per hour

Overhead Cost (O1)= $7.50 per direct labour hour

Total cost for labour(C)=   D1 + O1= $16.50 per hour

Selling price of articles(S1) = $80 per article

- Cost of Production (P1)= N * T * C

= 380,000 * 1.583 * 16.50

=$9,925,410

-Total amount got by selling (S) = N * S1

=380,000 * 80

=$30,400,000

Profit in this process (R1) = S - P1

=30,400,000 - 9,925,410

=$20,474,590 per year

-Time for each article with new machines (T)= 95 - 15 = 80 minute = 1.333 hour

-Cost for production (P2)= N * T * C

=380,000 * 1.333 * 16.50

=$8,357,910

Profit in this Process(R2)= S-P2=

=30,400,000 - 8,357,910

=$22,042,090 per year

Net Profit gain by new machine = R2 - R1

=$22,042,090 - $20,474,590

=$1,567,500 per year

The maximum amount the company should pay for the new machine is $1,567,500 if it wants to break even by the end of the first year
