EEE is thinking about purchasing a new machine to replace an existing machine.

The existing machine generates revenues of $1,500,000 per year and costs $860,000 per year to operate. The existing machine requires an investment in operating net working capital of $125,000. The existing machine was purchased 3 years ago for $1,250,000. The existing machine has a market value today of $275,000. The existing machine could be operated for another 5 years at which time it could be sold for $115,000.

The new machine would cost $1,475,000. It could be operated for 5 years. The expected salvage value is $235,000. The new machine will generate revenues of $1,500,000 per year. The new machine will cost $450,000 per year to operate. The new machine will require an investment in operating net working capital of $160,000.

The companys corporate tax rate is 40%, the CCA rate is 30% and the required rate of return is 12%. Assume the asset class remains open.
