ABCD Inc. manufactures financial calculators. The company is deciding whether to introduce a new calculator. This calculator will sell for $100. The company feels that sales will be 12,500, 13,000, 14,000, 13,200, and 12,500 units per year for the next 5 years. Variable costs will be 25% of sales, and fixed costs are $300,000 per year. The firm hired a marketing team to analyze the viability of the product and the marketing analysis cost $1,500,000. The company plans to use a vacant warehouse to manufacture and store the calculators. Based on a recent appraisal the warehouse and the property is worth $2.5 million on an after-tax basis. If the company does not sell the property today then it will sell the property 5 years from today at the currently appraised value. This project will require an injection of net working capital at the onset of the project in the amount of $100,000. This networking capital will be fully recovered at the end of the project. The firm will need to purchase some equipment in the amount of $1,200,000 to produce the new calculators. The machine has a 7-year life and will be depreciated using the straight-line method. At the end of the project, the anticipated market value of the machine is $150,000. The firm requires a 10% return on its investment and has a tax rate of 21%.

Calculate the book value of the machine at the end of year 5

Calculate the depreciation expense at the end of year 2

Calculate the after tax salvage value at the end of year 5

Calculate the cash flow from assets at the end of year 5

Calculate the net present value for the project

Mid-Michigan Manufacturing Inc. (MMMI) wishes to determine whether it would be advisable to replace an existing production machine with a new one. The have hired your firm as a consultant to determine whether the new machine should be purchased. The data you will need is as follows:

   MMMI has decided to set a project timeline of 4 years.
   The new machine will cost $1,100,000. It will be depreciated (straight line) over a five-year period (its estimated useful life), assuming a salvage value of $100,000.

   The old machine, which has been fully depreciated, could be sold today for $253,165. The company has received a firm offer for the machine from Williamston Widgets, and will sell it only if they purchase the new machine.

   Additional Sales generated by the superior products made by the new machine would be $665,000 in Year 1. In Years 2 & 3 sales are projected to grow by 8.5% per year. However, in Year 4, sales are expected to decline by 5% as the market starts to become saturated.

   Total expenses have been estimated at 60.75% of Sales.

   The firm is in the 21% marginal tax bracket and requires a minimum return on the replacement decision of 9%.

   A representative from Stockbridge Sprockets has told MMMI that they will buy the machine from them at the end of the project (the end of Year 4) for $100,000. MMMI has decided to include this in the terminal value of the project.

   The project will require $100,000 in Net Working Capital, 54% of which will be recovered at the end of the project.

The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $830,000, and it would cost another $17,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class (the applicable MACRS depreciation rates are 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81%, and 7.41%), and it would be sold after 3 years for $630,000. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $14,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $457,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 40%.
