The replacement will reduce operating expenses (that is, increase earnings before depreciation, interest, and taxes) by $24,000 per year for each of the 5 years the new machine is expected to last. Although the old machine has zero book value, it can be used for 5 more years. The depreciable value of the new machine is $60,000. The firm will depreciate the machine under MACRS using a 5-year recovery, view table attached, and is subject to a 40% tax rate.

- Tyrell Corp. is considering replacing a machine. The old one is currently being depreciated at $70,000 per year (straight-line), and is scheduled to end in five years with no remaining book value. If you don’t replace it, you will be lucky to get it removed for the amount you could salvage it for, so you don’t expect any profit in five years. If you replace the old machine now, you believe you can salvage it for $375,000 and buy a new machine for $850,000, plus $25,000 shipping fee and another $25,000 for installation. The new machine will not change the revenue or NOWC, but it will reduce the operating costs of the company by $145,000 per year. The new machine will be depreciated using the three-year MACRS schedule (the table is provided on the Moodle for your convenience). The useful life of this machine is five years, and it is expected that the machine can be sold at $20,000 at the end of the five years. Assume a tax rate of 25% and the cost of capital for the company is 8%.…Tyrell Corp. is considering replacing a machine.

If purchased, the equipment will cost $175,000 and will be used 6 years, at which time it can be sold for $72,000. At Year 3, an overhaul costing $20,000 must be performed. The equipment can be leased for $30,000 per year. Be-low will not be responsible for the midlife overhaul if the equipment is leased. If the equipment is purchased, it will be leased to other mining companies when possible; this is expected to yield revenues of $15,000 per year. The annual operating cost regardless of the decision will be approximately equal. What would you recommend if the MARR is 6%?
