Question

Creighton Industries is considering the purchase of a new strapping machine, which will cost $150,000, plus an additional $10,500 to ship and install. The new machine will have a 5-year useful life and will be depreciated to zero using the straight-line method. The machine is expected to generate new sales of $45,000 per year and is expected to save $16,000 in labor and electrical expenses over the next 5-years. The machine is expected to have a salvage value of $20,000. Creighton's income tax rate is 35%. Creighton uses a 12.5% discount rate for capital budgeting purposes. What is the machine's NPV?
