      Machine cost                   225,000

      Setup cost                          25,000

      Salvage value                    50,000

      Life                                    5 years

      Net operating expense savings:

      End of Year 1                 $ 50,000

      End of Year 2                 $ 90,000

      End of Year 3                 $110,000

      End of Year 4                 $120,000

      End of Year 5                 $120,000

      WACC                                10%

      Tax rate                            40%

      Assumed value of the machine

      at end of 5 years is          $50,000

If Lugar buys the machine, calculate the following answers. Remember to include the impact of depreciation, taxes, and salvage value.

Calculate the NPV. You need to take into account depreciation, taxes and salvage value into account when calculating this problem. Round you answer to the nearest whole number. Do not use $, commas, or decimal

Explanation / Answer

Answer:-=[50000 * (1 - .40) + 40000] = 70000

Investment = 225000 + 25000

= 250000

Scrap = 50000

Year = 5 year

Tax rate = 40%

WACC = 10%

Depreciation = (250000 - 50000) / 5

= 40000

NPV = Present Value - Investment

= 397978 - 250000

= 147978

Year FCF (free cash flow) = [Net operating expenses saving * (1 - tax rate) + Depreciation + Scrap] PVIF at 10% Present Value 1 =[50000 * (1 - .40) + 40000] = 70000 .909 63630 2 =[90000 * (1 - .40) + 40000] = 94000 .826 77644 3 =[110000 * (1 - .40) + 40000] = 106000 .751 79606 4 =[120000 * (1 - .40) + 40000] = 112000 .683 76496 5 =[120000 * (1 - .40) + 40000 + 50000] = 162000 .621 100602 TOTAL 397978
