Bilboa Freightlines, S.A., of Panama, has a small truck that it uses for intracity deliveries. The truck is worn out and must be either overhauled or replaced with a new truck. The company has assembled the following information: Present Truck New Truck Purchase cost new $ 31,000 $ 36,000 Remaining book value $ 24,000 - Overhaul needed now $ 23,000 - Annual cash operating costs $ 22,000 $ 19,500 Salvage value-now $ 5,000 - Salvage value-five years from now $ 20,000 $ 12,000 If the company keeps and overhauls its present delivery truck, then the truck will be usable for five more years. If a new truck is purchased, it will be used for five years, after which it will be traded in on another truck. The new truck would be diesel-operated, resulting in a substantial reduction in annual operating costs, as shown above. The company computes depreciation on a straight-line basis. All investment projects are evaluated using a 7% discount rate. Click here to view Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 13B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. Required: 1. What is the net present value of the “keep the old truck” alternative? 2. What is the net present value of the “purchase the new truck” alternative? 3. Should Bilboa Freightlines keep the old truck or purchase the new one?

Ocean World is considering purchasing a water park in Charlotte, North Carolina, for $2,100,000. The new facility will generate annual net cash inflows of $535,000 for eight years. Engineers estimate that the facility will remain useful for eight years and have no residual value. The company uses straight-line depreciation. Its owners want payback in less than five years and an ARR of 10% or more. Management uses a 12% hurdle rate on investments of this nature. Requirements Requirement 1. Compute the payback period, the ARR, the NPV, and the approximate IRR of this investment Requirement 2. Recommend whether the company should invest in this project

On August 3, Cinco Construction purchased special-purpose equipment at a cost of $4,883,900. The useful life of the equipment was estimated to be eight years, with an estimated residual value of $95,890.
a. Compute the depreciation expense to be recognized each calendar year for financial reporting purposes under the straight-line depreciation method (half-year convention).
b. Compute the depreciation expense to be recognized each calendar year for financial reporting purposes under the 200 percent declining-balance method (half-year convention) with a switch to straight-line when it will maximize depreciation expense.
c. Which of these two depreciation methods (straight-line or double-declining-balance) results in the highest net income for financial reporting purposes during the first two years of the equipment’s use?

Barbour Corporation, located in Buffalo, New York, is a retailer of high-tech products and is known for its excellent quality and innovation. Recently, the firm conducted a relevant cost analysis of one of its product lines that has only two products, T-1 and T-2. The sales for T-2 are decreasing and the purchase costs are increasing. The firm might drop T-2 and sell only T-1. Barbour allocates fixed costs to products on the basis of sales revenue. When the president of Barbour saw the income statements (see below), he agreed that T-2 should be dropped. If T-2 is dropped, sales of T-1 are expected to increase by 10% next year, but the firm’s cost structure will remain the same. T-1 T-2 Sales $ 280,000 $ 324,000 Variable costs: Cost of goods sold 86,000 162,000 Selling & administrative 12,000 66,000 Contribution margin $ 182,000 $ 96,000 Fixed expenses: Fixed corporate costs 76,000 91,000 Fixed selling and administrative 28,000 37,000 Total fixed expenses $ 104,000 $ 128,000 Operating income $ 78,000 $ (32,000 ) Required: 1. Find the expected change in annual operating income by dropping T-2 and selling only T-1. 2. By what percentage would sales from T-1 have to increase in order to make up the financial loss from dropping T-2? (Enter your answer as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places (i.e. 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34).) 3. What is the required percentage increase in sales from T-1 to compensate for lost margin from T-2, if total fixed costs can be reduced by $52,500? (Enter your answer as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places (i.e. 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34).)

Three pounds of direct material is needed per unit at $2.00 per pound. Ending inventory of direct materials should be 20% of next month's production needs. e. Most of the labor at the manufacturing facility is indirect, but there is some direct labor incurred. The direct labor hours per unit is 0.05. The direct labor rate per hour is $9 per hour. All direct labor is paid for in the month in which the work is performed. The direct labor total cost for each of the upcoming three months is as follows: January $ 3,807 February $ 4,442 March $ 4,293 f. Monthly manufacturing overhead costs are $5,500 for factory rent, $2,900 for other fixed manufacturing expenses, and $1.10 per unit for variable manufacturing overhead.

The company would pay down on the line of credit balance in increments of $1,000 if it has excess funds at the end of the quarter. The company would also pay the accumulated interest at the end of the quarter on the funds borrowed during the quarter. k. The company's income tax rate is projected to be 30% of operating income less interest expense. The company pays $10,000 cash at the end of February in estimated taxes. Requirement 1.
