The manufacture of folic acid is a competitive business. A new plant costs $100,000 and lasts for three years. The cash flow from the plant is as follows: Year-1: +43,300, Year-2: $43,300 and Year-3 = 58,300. (Assume there is no tax.) If the salvage value of the plant at the end of year is $66,700, would you scrap the plant at the end of year one?

- Dauten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of 8,000, an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of 800. The replacement machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase- The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by 1,000 per year; even so, the new machines much greater efficiency would cause operating expenses to decline by 1,500 per year The new machine would require that inventories be increased by 2,000, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by 500. Dautens marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%, and its WACC is 11%. Should it replace the old machine?Although the Chen Company’s milling machine is old, it is still in relatively good working order and would last for another 10 years. It is inefficient compared to modern standards, though, and so the company is considering replacing it. The new milling machine, at a cost of $110,000 delivered and installed, would also last for 10 years and would produce after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation tax savings) of $19,000 per year. It would have zero salvage value at the end of its life. The project cost of capital is 10%, and its marginal tax rate is 25%.

The lathe will cost $49,000 per year to run, but it will save the firm $144,000 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 10%, and the corporate tax rate is 20%. What is the NPV of buying the new lathe?
