Suppose that the cost of acquiring the new camp, buildings, cabins, etc. and setting up trails and activities has an initial cost of $1.3M dollars but will generate the following cash-flows for the next four years:
Year 1 $450,000
Year 2 $610,000
Year 3 $464,000
Year 4 $575,000

Hartley's Meat Pies is considering replacing its existing delivery van with a new one. The new van can offer considerable savings in operating costs. Information about the existing van and the new van follow: Existing van New van Original cost $50,000 $92,000 Annual operating cost $19,500 $14,000 Accumulated depreciation $34,000 — Current salvage value of the existing van $25,500 — Remaining life 9 years 9 years Salvage value in 9 years $ 0 $ 0 Annual depreciation $1778 $10,222 If Hartley's Meat Pies replaces the existing delivery van with the new one, over the next 8 years operating income will:

- Filkins Fabric Company is considering the replacement of its old, fully depreciated knitting machine. Two new models are available: Machine 190-3, which has a cost of $190,000, a 3-year expected life, and after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation) of $87,000 per year; and Machine 360-6, which has a cost of $360,000, a 6-year life, and after-tax cash flows of $98,300 per year. Knitting machine prices are not expected to rise because inflation will be offset by cheaper components (microprocessors) used in the machines. Assume that Filkins’ cost of capital is 14%. Should the firm replace its old knitting machine? If so, which new machine should it use? By how much would the value of the company increase if it accepted the better machine? What is the equivalent annual annuity for each machine?arrow_forwardFriedman Company is considering installing a new IT system. The cost of the new system is estimated to be 2,250,000, but it would produce after-tax savings of 450,000 per year in labor costs. The estimated life of the new system is 10 years, with no salvage value expected. Intrigued by the possibility of saving 450,000 per year and having a more reliable information system, the president of Friedman has asked for an analysis of the projects economic viability. All capital projects are required to earn at least the firms cost of capital, which is 12 percent. Required: 1. Calculate the projects internal rate of return. Should the company acquire the new IT system? 2. Suppose that savings are less than claimed. Calculate the minimum annual cash savings that must be realized for the project to earn a rate equal to the firms cost of capital. Comment on the safety margin that exists, if any. 3. Suppose that the life of the IT system is overestimated by two years. Repeat Requirements 1 and 2 under this assumption.

- Saved ework i Howell Petroleum is considering a new project that complements its existing business. The machine required for the project costs $3.93 million. The marketing department predicts that sales related to the project will be $2.63 million per year for the next four years, after which the market will cease to exist. The machine will be depreciated down to zero over its four-year economic life using the straight-line method. Cost of goods sold and operating expenses related to the project are predicted to be 30 percent of sales. The company also needs to add net working capital of $280,000 immediately. The additional net working capital will be recovered in full at the end of the project's life. The corporate tax rate is 23 percent. The required rate of return is 13 percent.

The new truck would cost $56,000. Because of the increased capacity, reduced maintenance costs, and increased fuel economy, the new truck is expected to generate cost savings of $8,000. At the end of 8 years, the company will sell the truck for an estimated $27,000. Traditionally the company has used a rule of thumb that a proposal should not be accepted unless it has a payback period that is less than 50% of the asset’s estimated useful life.
