Pentonic Inc. is trying to determine if it should start production of a new *2/2
range of high-speed autofocusing cameras with APS-C over a five-year
project life. You have been hired to help evaluate the investment and
make a recommendation to the Pentonic Inc. board of directors. The
production of this new line of cameras will require the purchase of
specialised equipment costing $2,400,000. The equipment costs an
additional $400,000 to install. The system will be depreciated on a
straight-line basis to a zero balance over its eight-year life. The
manufacturer has contracted to buy the equipment back from you for
$100,000 at the end of the project. The tax rate is 30%. Keep all pennies
in your calculations. What is the after-tax salvage value of the
specialized equipment at the end of the five-year project

Lakeside Winery is considering expanding its wine-making operations. *2/2
The expansion will require new equipment costing $649,000 that would
be depreciated on a straight-line basis to a zero balance over the four-

the end of the project. The projected revenue per year is $357,000,
variable costs per year are expected to be 10% of the projected revenue

The Sisyphean Corporation is considering investing in a new cane *2/2
manufacturing machine that has an estimated life of three years. The
cost of the machine is $30,000 and the machine will be depreciated
straight line over its three-year life to a residual value of $0.

The cane manufacturing machine will result in sales of 2000 canes in


year 1. Sales are estimated to grow by 10% per year each year through
year three. The price per cane that Sisyphean will charge its customers is
$18 each and is to remain constant. The canes have a manufacturing
cost of $9 each.

Installation of the machine and the resulting increase in manufacturing


capacity will require an increase in various net working capital accounts.
It is estimated that the Sisyphean Corporation needs to hold 2% of its
annual sales in cash, 4% of its annual sales in accounts receivable, 9% of
its annual sales in inventory, and 6% of its annual sales in accounts
payable. The firm is in the 21% tax bracket, and has a cost of capital of
