A $65,000 machine with a 7-year class life was purchased 2 years ago. The machine will now be sold for $50,000 and replaced with a new machine costing $78,000, with a 10-year class life. The new machine will non increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $13,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project?

REPLACEMENT ANALYSIS St. Johns River Shipyards is considering the replacement of an 8-year-old riveting machine with a new one that will increase earnings from 24,000 to 46,000 per year. The new machine will cost 80,000, and it will have an estimated life of 8 years and no salvage value. The new riveting machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase. The applicable corporate tax rate is 25%, and the firms WACC is 10%. The old machine has been fully depreciated and has no salvage value. Should the old riveting machine be replaced by the new one? Explain your answer.
REPLACEMENT ANALYSIS The Dauten Toy Corporation currently uses an injection molding machine that was purchased 2 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis, and it has 6 years of remaining life. Its current book value is 2,100, and it can be sold for 2/500 at this time. Thus, the annual depreciation expense is 2,100/6 = 350 per year. If the old machine not replaced, it can be sold for 500 at the end of its useful life. 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. This machine falls into the MACRS 5-year class so the applicable depreciation rates are 20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 11%, and 6%. The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by 1,000 per year; even so, the new machine's 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. Dauten's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%, and its WACC is 11%. Should it replace the old machine?
QUESTION 7 Massey Enterprises is planning to buy a new machine to decrease the overall cost of production. This machine will cost $50000 and will help to save the company $22000 in operating costs annually. The machine will be fully depreciated using a straight-line depreciation method to a useful life of 4 years. The actual market value of the machine is expected to be zero at the termination of the project. The marginal tax rate for the company is 21 and the discount rate for this project is 11 percent. What is the net present value of this 4-year project?
Question 5 A $60,000 machine with a 6-year class life was purchased 2 years ago. The machine will now be sold for $50,000 and replaced with a new machine costing $79,000, with a 10-year class life. The new machine will not increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $9,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project?
19 A $89,000 machine with a 7-year class life was purchased 3 years ago. The machine will now be sold for $31,000 and replaced with a new machine costing $65,000, with a 5-year class life. The new machine will not increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $16,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the initial outlay for the project? NOTE-- ALTHOUGH THE INITIAL OUTLAY IS NEGATIVE, PLEASE ENTER YOUR ANSWER AS A POSITIVE SIGN. IN OTHER WORDS, IF YOUR ANSWER IS -10,000, ENTER IT AS 10,000. DO NOT ENTER THE DOLLAR SIGN.
Question 9 Daily Enterprises is purchasing a $9.6 million machine. It will cost $52,000 to transport and install the machine. The machine has a depreciable life of five years using straight-line depreciation and will have no salvage value. The machine will generate incremental revenues of $4.1 million per year along with incremental costs of $1.1 million per year. Daily's marginal tax rate is 21%. You are forecasting incremental free cash flows for Daily Enterprises. What are the incremental free cash flows associated with the new machine? The free cash flow for year 0 will be $nothing. (Round to the nearest dollar.) The free cash flow for years 1–5 will be $_______________________ (Round to the nearest dollar.)
