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

Hayduke Corporation reported the following results from the sale of 5,000 units in May: sales $300,000, variable costs $180,000,
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

4,444.44 units

Explanation:

For the computation of Number of units to be sold to earn target profit first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:-

Selling price per unit = Sales ÷ Number of units sold

= $300,000 ÷ 5,000

= $60

Variable cost per unit = Total variable cost ÷ Number of units sold

= $180,000 ÷ 5,000

= $36

Increase in selling price = $60 × 5%

= $3

New selling price per unit = $60 + $3

= $63

New contribution margin per unit = New selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $63 - $36

= $27

Number of units to be sold to earn target profit = (Fixed cost + Target profit) ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= ($90,000 + $30,000) ÷ $27

= $120,000 ÷ $27

= 4,444.44 units
