True

The market system presented in the question relates to a system of capitalism. In capitalism private ownership of resources is used to control, motivate and coordinate economic activity.

Contrast this with a system of socialism or communism, where the state, which represents the collective people, who control the ownership of resources and then use it control and coordinate economic activity. 

This contrast between private and public control of the resources is an essential component and critical idea in understanding the difference between free market systems that demand private enterprises be efficient and effective in the production and control of the resource, socialized systems which can limp along for years because of the public's support for their continuance.

Precision Tool is trying to decide whether to lease or buy some new equipment for its tool and die operations. The equipment cos
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

$4,200

Explanation:

Cost of equipment = $52,000

Life of equipment = 3 years

Depreciation through straight line method = 52,000/3 = $17,333

Tax rate = 33%

Pretax cost of debt = 10%

Lease amount of equipment = $18,500

After tax cost of debt = 10%*(1-0.33)

After tax cost of debt = 10%*(0.67)

After tax cost of debt = 0.067

After tax cost of debt = 6.7%

After tax lease payment amount = 18,500*(1-0.33)

After tax lease payment amount = 18,500*0.67

After tax lease payment amount = 12,395

Present Value of 3 lease payment = 12,395/(1+0.067) + 12,395/(1+0.067)^2 + 12,395/(1+0.067)^3

Present Value of 3 lease payment = 12395/1.067 + 12395/1.1385 + 12395/1.2148

Present Value of 3 lease payment = 11616.68 + 10887.13 + 10203.33

Present Value of 3 lease payment = $32,707.14

Present Value of cost involved in purchasing the equipment is $52,000, however there will be a tax shield from depreciation therefore, this amount would reduce the company's cost.

Annual depreciation tax shield = 17,333*0.33 = $5719.89. There will be tax shield on depreciation for 3 years. Therefore, present value of $5719.89 is calculated for three years:

= $5719.89/(1+0.067) + $5719.89/(1+0.067)^2 + $5719.89/(1+0.067)^3

= $5719.89/1.067 + $5719.89/1.1385 + $5719.89/1.2148

= $5360.72 + $5024.06 + $4708.50

= $15,093.28

Present Value of the cost of buying the equipment = $52,000 - $15,093.28 = $36,906.72

Net Advantage Leasing = Present Value of the cost of buying the equipment - Present Value of 3 lease payment

Net Advantage Leasing = $36,906.72 - $32,707.14

Net Advantage Leasing = $4,199.58

Net Advantage Leasing = $4,200.
