125,000 and have a 5 year expected life overwhich

it would be depreciated down using the straight-line

method and have no salvage value at

the end of

five years Sumitomo

chemical corporation is considering

a replacing a 5 year old machine that

originally cost 50,000 and can be sold

for 60,000. this machine is totally depreciated.

the replacement machine would cost

125,000 and have a 5 year

expected life over which it would be

depreciated down using

the straight-line method and have no

salvage value at the end of

five years. the new machine would

produce savings before

depreciation and taxes of 45,000 per

year. assuming a 34% marginal tax rate

and a required return rate of 10%,

calculate:

present value

totallydepreciated. the machine presently has a

book value of 25,000 and is being

currently depreciated using the straight line method

down to the terminal value of zero

over the next five years,

generating depreciation of $5,000 per

year. if the rest of the

variables involved in the problem do

not vary, what is now the net

present value of substituting the

machine.?
