Question

In 2008, Raytheon Incorporation purchased a new Aerospace simulator System for $600,000. The estimated salvage value was $28,000 after 12 years. Currently the expected remaining life is 9 years with an AOC of $32,000 per year and an estimated salvage value of $40,000.Raytheon has recommended early replacement of the system which one that costs $400,000 and has a 14-year economic service lifge, a $38,000 salvage value, and an estimated AOC of &50,000 per year. If the MARR for the Incorporation is 10% per year, find the minimum trade-in value necessary now to make replacement economically advangeous.

Explanation / Answer

Estimated revenues pending = (AOC* remaining life) – Salvage value for remaining life

                                              = ($32,000 * 9 years) - $40,000

                                              = $288,000 - $40,000

                                              = $248,000

Cost of new project = Purchase price – Salvage value

                                = $400,000 - $38,000

                                = $362,000

Expected AOC on new project = AOC per year * life of project

                                                  = $50,000 * 14 years

                                                  = $700,000

Total expected revenue = Expected AOC on new project – Cost of new project – Estimated reeus pending on old project

                                      = $700,000 - $362,000 - $248,000

                                      = $90,000

MARR per annum = ($362,000 + $248,000)*10/100

                               = $610,000*10/100

                               = $61,000

For the life of new project = $61,000*14 years

                                           = $854,000

Minimum trade-in value necessary = $854,000 - $90,000

                                                         = $764,000.
