A machine shop owner is attempting to decide whether to purchase a new drill press, a lathe, or a grinder. The profit or loss from each purchase are shown in the following table where one of two states of nature could occur (the company succeeds in getting a military contract, or it does not get a contract).
Contract status
Purchase Get Contract No contract
Drill press 30,000 -10,000
Lathe 25,000 4,000
Grinder 12,000 10,000

Sams Machine Shop is considering a four-year project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine for $390,000 is estimated to result in $135,000 in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class, and it will have a pretax salvage value at the end of the project of $198,000. The MACRS rates are .2, .32, .192, .1152, .1152, and .0576 for Years 1 to 6, respectively. Ignore bonus depreciation. The press also requires an initial investment in inventory of $8,000, along with an additional $1,500 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. The inventory will return to its original level when the project ends. The shop's tax rate is 21 percent and its discount rate is 16 percent. Should the firm buy and install the machine? Why or why not?

On May 1, 2017, Hobart Mfg. Co. purchased a drill press at a cost of $36,000. The drill press is expected to last 10 years and have a residual value of $6,000. During its 10-year life, the equipment is expected to produce 500,000 units of product. In 2017, 2018 and 2019, 25,000 75,000 and 84,000 units, respectively, were produced.

The Australian trade deficit during the 1980s was due largely to the rise in the Australian budget deficit. On the other hand, the popular press sometimes claims that the increased trade deficit resulted from a decline in the quality of Australian products relative to foreign products.
a). Assume that Australian products did decline in relative quality during the 1980s. How did this affect net exports at any given exchange rate?
b). Use a three-panel diagram to show the effect of this shift in net exports on the Australian real exchange rate and trade balance.
c).Is the claim in the popular press consistent with the model in this chapter? Does a decline in the quality of Australian products have any effect on our standard of living?
(Hint:When we sell our goods to foreigners, what do we receive in return?)
