Kolby’s Korndogs is looking at a new sausage system with an installed cost of $685,000. The asset qualifies for 100 percent bonus depreciation and can be scrapped for $91,000 at the end of the project’s 5-year life. The sausage system will save the firm $195,000 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $47,000. If the tax rate is 21 percent and the discount rate is 10 percent, what is the NPV of this project?
