preferably show excel steps, such as the equations used in each cell in excel.

3. A tele phone company is considering building a new automated switching distribution substation with a useful lfe of 20 years to support new suburban developments. The substation is located in a state in which the combined tax rate is 40%, and the telephone company uses a l 5% real interest MARR to assess capital investment projects. Estimated real dollar revenues and costs are as follows: Amount $1,157,000 S 250,000 S 575,000 S 150,000 S36,500 s 650,000 year I S Building initial cost Equipment salvage value Revenue arithmetic gradient Annual operating expenses 20,000 years 2 to 5 750,000 years 6 to 20 185,000 first 10 years S 230,000, years to 15 S 275,000, years 16 to 20 S S The substation will be put into service on the first day of the telephone company's fiscal year. Using MACRS depreciation, what will be the telephone company's after tax equiv alent uniform annual worth for the substation?

Explanation / Answer

Ans: Calculations of Net Depreciations, cost of the assets, NET WDV & Net salvage values

Calculation of Net Revenues, Expenses & After tax Operating incomes and Use of Prsent Value Factor

Thus based on the above the net evaluation of the project's worth is as under:

Hence, since the net present value of the project is negative so project should not be undertaken.
