A machine that originally cost $25,000 and was depreciated on a straight line basis has one year of its expected 5-year life remaining. Its current market value is $12,000. The corporate tax rate is 34%. The cash flow from disposing of the old machine is:

c)($ 9,620)

d)$14,380

a)$150,000

b)$130,000

16. Shunt Technology will spend $800,000 on a piece of equipment that will manufacture fine wire for the electronics industries. The shipping and installation charges will be $240,000 and net working capital will increase $48,000. The equipment will replace an existing machine that has a salvage value of $75,000 and a book value of $125,000. If Shunt has a current marginal tax rate of 34 percent, what is the net investment?

a)$1,030,000

b)$1,163,000

c)$1,033,000

d)$996,000

Explanation / Answer

13) c is correct. Net cash flows are incremental cash flows from the project.

14) b is correct. Cash Flow = (Market Price - Book Value) x -Tax Rate + Market Price = (12,000 - 5,000) x -34% + 12,000 = 9,620

15) d is correct. Cash Flow = (150,000 - 200,000) x -40% + 150,000 = 170,000

16) d is correct. Net Investment = 800,000 + 240,000 + 48,000 - (75,000 - 125,000) x (-34%) - 75,000 = $996,000
