Hyundai is considering opening a plant in two neighboring states.
Option 1: One state has a corporate tax rate of 10 percent. If operated in this state, the plant is expected to generate $1,250,000 pretax profit.
Option 2: The other state has a corporate tax rate of 2 percent. If operated in this state, the plant is expected to generate $1,180,000 of pretax profit.
Required:
What is the after-state-taxes profit in the state with the 10% tax rate?
What is the after-state-taxes profit in the state with the 2% tax rate?
Which state should Hyundai choose?
A component manufacturer currently produces 200,000 units a year. It buys component lids from an outside supplier at a price of $2 a lid. The plant manager believes that it would be cheaper to make these lids rather than buy them. Direct production costs are estimated to be only $1.50 a lid. The necessary machinery would cost $150,000 and would last 10 years. This investment could be written o§ immediately for tax purposes. The plant manager estimates that the operation would require additional working capital of $30,000 but argues that this sum can be ignored since it is recoverable at the end of the 10 years. If the company pays tax at a rate of 21% and the opportunity cost of capital is 15%, would you support the plant managerís proposal? State clearly any additional assumptions that you need to make.

In addition, a P25 per ton sales commission over and above the current commission to the sales force in the new territory would be required. How many tons would have to be sold in the new territory to maintain Davao’s current after-tax income of P94,500?
