A new operating system for an existing machine is expected to cost $565,000 and have a useful life of six years. The system yiel

ds an incremental after-tax income of $165,000 each year after deducting its straight-line depreciation. The predicted salvage value of the system is $25,000. A machine costs $410,000, has a $26,000 salvage value, is expected to last eight years, and will generate an after-tax income of $75,000 per year after straight-line depreciation. Assume the company requires a 10% rate of return on its investments. Compute the net present value of each potential investment. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Answer:

The net present value of each potential investment:

                         Machine A        Machine B

NPV                   $167,675             $2,267

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                         Machine A        Machine B

Cost of machine                              $565,000         $410,000

Incremental after-tax income            165,000             75,000

Salvage value                                      25,000             26,000

Estimated useful life                           6 years             8 years

Required rate of return                      10%                   10%

Annuity factor                                     4.355                5.335

PV factor                                             0.564                0.467

PV of incremental after-tax income $718,575         $400,125

                                                ($165,000*4.355)   ($75,000*5.335)

PV of salvage value                            $14,100             $12,142

Total PV of income                         $732,675          $412,267

NPV                                                  $167,675             $2,267

= Total PV of income minus PV of initial investment cost

    Cr Accumulated depreciation - truck 10,000

b. Determine the book value of the truck that will appear on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet.

Truck $46,000

c. Record the year-end adjusting entry of uncollectible accounts expense.

    Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 16,000

d. Determine the net realizable value of receivables that will appear on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet.

Accounts receivable $52,000

Explanation:

truck's depreciation expense straight depreciation = ($56,000 - $6,000) / 5 years = $10,000 per year

accounts receivable balance December 31 = $68,000

allowance for doubtful accounts = $0

total sales on account = $320,000

5% of credit sales are uncollectible

accounts receivable = $68,000 - $16,000 = $52,000
