One year ago your company purchased a machine used in manufacturing for $90000, you can purchase it for $150,000 today. The CCA rate applicable to both machines is 30% and neither will have a long term salvage value. New machine will produce earnings before interest taxes depreciation and amortization of $35000 a year for the next 10 years. The current machine is expected to produce EBITDA of $21000 a year. Market value today of the current machine is 50000. The company’s tax rate is 40% and opportunity cost of capital 11%. Should the company replace the old machine and what is the NPV of the replacement.

Expert Solution

This new machine SHOULD NOT be replaced, because NPV of replacement decision is negative.

NPV = - 20120.40

Step - 1 Compute the investment in Year = 0

Here we sell the old machine for 50000 and purchase the new machine for 150000. So additional funds needed = 150000 - 50000 = 100000. But old machine book value = 90000 - 30% = 63000. Selling this machine for 50000 = 63000 - 50000 = 13000 of loss.

Tax saved due this loss = 13000 * 0.40 = 5200

Net Investment at ,,,,,,,, t = 0 ,,,,,,,,,, = 150000 - 50000 - 5200 = 94800

Step - 2

Now calculate the annual cashflows for 1 to 10 years and NPV

Total of PV of cash flows	74679.64

NPV	-20120.4

In the above table, depreciation calculation is the main aspect. CCA rate is given as 30%. The difference in book values of old machine and new machine = 150000 - 63000 = 87000

Year - 1 = 87000 * 0.3 = 26100

Year - 2 = 26100 * 0.70 = 18270

Under CCA method, depreciation continues to decrease year by year at a rate of..... ( 1 - depreciation)

So depreciation of any year = previous depreciation * 0.70
