company.• This truck falls into the MACRS five-year class. It will be sold after three years for
$30,000.• The truck purchase will have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm
$45,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly in leasing expenses.• The firm's marginal
tax rate (federal plus state) is 40%, and its MARR is 15%.(a) Is this project acceptable, based
on the most likely estimates given in the problem?(b) If the firm's MARR is increased to 25%,
what would be the required savings in leasing so that the project would remain profitable?View
