Delta Corp is evaluating a machine for possible purchase. The machine is priced at $400,000. An additional $20,000 will be required for shipping and installation if purchased. Also, the new machine will require an initial investment in net working capital of $30,000. The machine will need to be depreciated on a 6-year schedule, with equal annual amounts taken as depreciation. However, Delta Corp expects to use the machine only for 4 years and then sell it for an expected $230,000. During each of the 4 years that Delta Corp employs the machine, the companys sales revenue is expected to be higher by $125,000. Additional annual operating costs (other than depreciation) are expected to total $20,000.
