DeLuxe Furniture is thinking of buying a wood cutting machine for $150,000 that would save it $40,000 per year in production costs. The savings would be constant over the project's 3-year life. The machine is to be linearly depreciated to zero and will have no resale value after 3 years.
The machine would require an additional $9,000 in net operating working capital. The appropriate cost of capital for this project is 14% and the company's tax rate is 35%.
