Calculation of Net cash flows from adopting new project (Design A)-Expansion Project Step A: Estimating Initial Cash Outflow - Cost of "new" asset - Capitalized expenditures(shipping\&installation) + Net proceeds from sale of "old"asset (current system) (+) Taxes(Tax savings, tax rate =34% )due to sale of "old" asset (current system) = Initial Cash Outflow Step B: Calculating Interim Incremental Net Cash Flows (years 1 to 5) a) Operating costs from present equipment (excluding taxes and depreciation) b) Operating costs if Design A is invested (excluding taxes and depreciation) EBIT_other than Depreciation : a)-b) Depreciation Net Working Capital (NWC) Capital Expenditure Interim Incremental Net Cash Flow Step C: Calculating Terminal-year Incremental Net Cash Flow Incremental cash flow from the terminal year before project windup considerations + Final salvage value of "new" asset (Design A) - Tax due to sale or disposal of "new" asset (tax effect of capital gain or loss) = Terminal-year Incremental Net Cash Flow year 0 1 2 3 4 $138,000 5 $27,679 \begin{tabular}{l|l|l|l|l|} \hline \$0 & $0 & $0 & $0 & $0 \\ \hline \$0 & $0 & $0 & $0 & $0 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline \multicolumn{4}{|c|}{ End of Year } & \\ \hline 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline 33.00% & 45.00% & 15.00% & 7.00% & 0.00% \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline & & & & \\ \hline 0.3300 & 0.4500 & 0.1500 & 0.0700 & 0.0000 \\ \hline \end{tabular} Incremental Net cash flows NPV MACRS depreciation rate for three-year property class Net Increase in tax depreciation chareges New Design's depreciation basis x MACRS depreciation (\%) = New Design's periodic depreciation Current System's depreciation basis Not Applicat Not Applicat Not Applicat Not Applicat Not Applicable x MACRS depreciation (\%) Not Applicat Not Applicat Not Applicat Not Applicat Not Applicable = Current System's remaining periodic depreciation Net increase in tax depreciation charges Be advised that NOT all cells highligted in yellow necessarily need to be filled.
