Dog Up! Franks is looking at a new sausage system with an installed cost of $343,200. This cost will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project's 4-year life, at the end of which the sausage system can be scrapped for $52,800. The sausage system will save the firm $105,600 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $24,640.

  

If the tax rate is 24 percent and the discount rate is 16 percent, what is the NPV of this project?

Justin Company is in the process of preparing its budget for next year. Cost of goods sold has been estimated at 60 percent of sales. Merchandise purchases are to be made during the month preceding the month of the sales. Button pays 60 percent in the month of purchase and 40 percent in the month following. Wages are estimated at 20 percent of sales and are paid during the month of sale. Other operating costs amounting to 10 percent of sales are to be paid in the month following the sale.

Month                          Sales Revenue

Mom’s Cookies, Inc., is considering the purchase of a new cookie oven. The original cost of the old oven was $35,000; it is now five years old, and it has a current market value of $15,000.00. The old oven is being depreciated over a 10-year life toward a zero estimated salvage value on a straight-line basis, resulting in a current book value of $17,500 and an annual depreciation expense of $3,500. The old oven can be used for six more years but has no market value after its depreciable life is over. Management is contemplating the purchase of a new oven whose cost is $27,000 and whose estimated salvage value is zero. Expected before-tax cash savings from the new oven are $4,200 a year over its full MACRS depreciable life. Depreciation is computed using MACRS over a 5-year life, and the cost of capital is 10 percent. Assume a 30 percent tax rate.

What will the cash flows for this project be?

Suppose a machine (defender) was purchased 2 years ago with an initial cost of $30,000. The CCA rate for the machine is 30%. The tax rate is 40%, and the company’s MARR is 15%. The operating cost of the machine is $4,000 per year. The current market value of the machine is $8,000, and this value decreases by $2,000 per year until it reaches zero. (a) What is the current net market value of the machine? (b) What will be the Annual Equivalent Cost if we decide to keep the machine for another 3 years? (Use the opportunity cost approach)

Suppose there is a perfectly competitive industry where all the firms are identical with identical cost curves.

Furthermore, suppose that a representative firm’s total cost is given by the equation TC = 120 + q2 + 2q where q is the quantity of output produced by the firm.

You also know that the market demand for this product is given by the equation P = 1200 – 2Q where Q is the market quantity. In addition you are told that the market supply curve is given by the equation P = 120 + Q.

a. What is the equilibrium quantity and price in this market given this information?

b. The firm’s MC equation based upon its TC equation is MC = 2q + 2. Given this information and your answer in part (a), what is the firm’s profit maximizing level of production, total revenue, total cost and profit at this market equilibrium?

Is this a short-run or long-run equilibrium? Explain your answer.

c. Given your answer in part (b), what do you anticipate will happen in this market in the long-run?

d. In this market, what is the long-run equilibrium price and what is the long-run equilibrium quantity for a representative firm to produce? Explain your answer.

e. Given the long-run equilibrium price you calculated in part (d), how many units of this good are produced in this market?

  1. In the long-run will a representative firm in this industry earn negative economic profits, positive economic profits, or zero economic profits? (Hint: again, no calculation required).
  2. What will be the new long-run equilibrium price in this industry?
  3. At the new long-run equilibrium, what will be the output of each representative firm in the industry?
