Question

A division of Raytheon owns a 5-year-old turret lathe used to manufacture fabricated metal products that was purchased for $96,000 and now has a financial reporting (non-tax) book value of $24,000. It has been depreciated for tax purposes as MACRS-GDS 7-year property. It has a current market value of $18,000. The expected decline in market value is $3,000 per year from this point forward to a minimum of $3,000. O&M costs are $8,000 per year. Additional capability is needed. If the old lathe is kept, that new capability will be contracted out for $13,000, assumed payable at the end of each year. A new turret lathe has the increased capability to fulfill all needs, replacing the existing turret lathe and requiring no outside contracting. It can be purchased for $65,000 and will have an expected life of 8 years. Its market value is expected to be $65,000(0.7t) at the end of year t. Annual O&M costs are expected to equal $10,000. If the after-tax MARR is 9 percent, the tax rate is 40 percent, and the planning horizon is 8 years, determine whether to keep and use a contractor or to sell and buy new.
