Diamond Autobody purchased some new equipment. The new equipment cost $90,000. The company estimates the equipment will have a residual value of $10,000. Diamond also estimates it will use the equipment for eight years or about 5,000 total hours. Required: Prepare a depreciation schedule for eight years using the following methods: 1. Straight-line. 2. Double-declining-balance. 3. Activity-based. Actual use per year was as follows: Year Hours Used 1 850 2 750 3 800 4 730 5 700 6 625 7 400 8 425

Using PyCharm, create a new Project lab8. Under lab8 create a new Directory exercise, then create a Python file called nested.py, type the following:

Test your code by putting the following at the bottom of the file: make_table_of_stars(2,3) (as shown in the code above). Run the file by right clicking in the code area of Pycharm, then choosing “Run nested”. Your output should be:

***

***

(2 rows with 3 columns of stars). Reverse the 2 and 3. What happens? Make a new function, make_table_of_digits that prints the digits 1..row*column instead. So nested.make_table_of_digits(2,3) would print:

123

456

To do this, change the '*' to a number. This is a little tricky. Start by just getting the first row correct. Change the printed '*' to print the value of j yields:

012

012

when make_table_of_digits(2,3) is called. Since you want to start with 1, not 0, change number being printed to (j+1) instead of j. Then, make_table_of_digits(2,3) should print

123

123

Much better. The whole first row is correct. To increase the numbers after the first row, multiply row number (i) times the total number of columns. Then, add that value to (j+1), and print. Then make_table_of_digits(2,3) prints:

123

456

That works well until you try make_table_of_digits(5,3), which prints:

123

456

789

101112

131415

make_table_of_digits only works well with 1 digit numbers. Create a new function, make_table_of_numbers, which makes each number take up 3 spaces using string.format. For example,

n = 3

print("{:3}".format(n), end=" ")

would print --3, where ‘-’ is a space. make_table_of_numbers(5,3) should print:

1 2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9

10 11 12

1. Firm AAA is considering a new three-year new project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.28 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $2,120,000 in annual sales, with costs of $745,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $260,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $280,000 at the end of the project.

1. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the project’s year 0 net cash flow? And what are the free cash flow at Year 1? Year 2? Year 3
2. Should the firm accept the project if the required return rate is 15%? Why? Please show your calculation in details.

]Ilana Industries, Inc., needs a new lathe. It can buy a new high-speed lathe for $1.4 million. The lathe will cost $39,000 per year to run, but it will save the firm $134,000 in labor costs and will be useful for 10 years. Suppose that for tax purposes, the lathe will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over its 10-year life to a salvage value of $450,000. The actual market value of the lathe at that time also will be $450,000. The discount rate is 8%, and the corporate tax rate is 20%. What is the NPV of buying the new lathe? (A negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in dollars not in millions. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Heartland Foods will release a new range of candies which contain anti-oxidants. New equipment to manufacture the candy will cost $4 million, which will be depreciated by straight-line depreciation over six years. In addition, there will be $5 million spent on promoting the new candy line in year one. It is expected that the range of candies will bring in revenues of $6 million per year for five years with production and support costs of $1.5 million per year. If Heartland Foods' marginal tax rate is 35%, what are the incremental earnings in the second year of this project?
