You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron I costs $276,000, has a three-year life, and has pr

etax operating costs of $75,000 per year. The Techron II costs $480,000, has a five-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $48,000 per year. For both milling machines, use straight-line depreciation to zero over the project’s life and assume a salvage value of $52,000. If your tax rate is 21 percent and your discount rate is 12 percent, compute the EAC for both machines. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answer:

Techron I

-$154,842

Techron II

-$144,981

Explanation:

Techron I

Cash Flow From Year 1 to Year 3

Pretax operating costs             ($75,000)

Depreciation ($276,000 / 3)   <u>($92,000)</u>

Profit before tax                       ($167,000)

Tax (21% x $167,000)                <u>$35,070</u>

Profit after tax                           ($131,930)

Add back Depreciation            <u>$92,000</u>

Cash Flow after tax                   (<u>$39,930)</u>

Terminal Value = Salvage value - Tax = $52,000 - ($52,000 x 21%) = $41,080

NPV = ($276,000) + [ (39,930) x (1+12%)^-1] + [ (39,930) x (1+12%)^-2] + [ (39,930) x (1+12%)^-3] = ($276,000) + ($35,652) + ($31,832) + ($28,421) = ($371,905)

EAC = NPV/(1-(1+r)^-n)/r

EAC = -371,905 / ( 1 - ( 1 + 12% )^-3/12% = -$154,842

Techron II

Cash Flow From Year 1 to Year 3

Pretax operating costs             ($48,000)

Depreciation ($480,000 / 5)   <u>($96,000)</u>

Profit before tax                       ($144,000)

Tax (21% x $167,000)                <u>$30,240</u>

Profit after tax                           ($113,760)

Add back Depreciation            <u>$96,000</u>

Cash Flow after tax                   (<u>$17,746)</u>

Terminal Value = Salvage value - Tax = $52,000 - ($52,000 x 21%) = $41,080

NPV = ($480,000) + [ (17,746) x (1+12%)^-1] + [ (17,746) x (1+12%)^-2] + [ (17,746) x (1+12%)^-3] = ($480,000) + ($15,845) + ($14,147) + ($12631) = ($522,623)

EAC = NPV/(1-(1+r)^-n)/r

EAC = -522,623 / ( 1 - ( 1 + 12% )^-5/12% = -$144,981

Butler Corporation is considering the purchase of new equipment costing $84,000. The projected annual after-tax net income from
torisob [31]

Answer:

The net present value of the machine is $5530

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of the equipment = $84,000

Annual after-tax net income from the equipment after deducting depreciation = $3,000

Depreciation = $28,000

Useful life = 3 years

Required return on investment = 9% = 0.09

Now,

After-tax cash flow = After-tax net income + Depreciation

= $3,000 + $28,000

= $31,000

Therefore,

Net Present Value = Present value of cash flow - Investment

= ( $31,000 × PVIFA(11%, 3) ) - $84,000

= ( $31,000 × 2.5313 ) - $84,000

= $78470.3 - $84,000

= -$5529.7 ≈ - $5530

hence,

The net present value of the machine is $5530
