You have learned that a new machine is available that offers many advantages and that you can purchase it for $150,000 today. The CCA rate applicable to both machines is 40%; neither machine will have any long-term salvage value. You expect that the new machine will produce earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of $35,000 per year for the next 10 years. The current machine is expected to produce EBITDA of $20,000 per year. All other expenses of the two machines are identical. The market value today of the current machine is $50,000. Your company's tax rate is 45%, and the opportunity cost of capital for this type of equipment is 11%. Should your company replace its year-old machine? What is the NPV of replacement? The NPV of replacement is $ .

The company is considering purchasing a machine instead and is comparing two alternate options: option a is to purchase the machine it is currently renting for $160,000, which will require $20,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses, or option b, which is to purchase a new, more advanced machine for $265,000, which will require $17,000 per year in ongoing maintenance expenses and will lower bottling costs by $15,000 per year. Also, $37,000 will be spent upfront in training the new operators of the machine. Suppose the appropriate discount rate is 7% per year and the machine is purchased today. Maintenance and bottling costs are paid at the end of each year, as is the rental of the machine. Assume also that the machines are subject to a CCA rate of 25% and there will be a negligible salvage value in 10 years' time (the end of each machine's life). The marginal corporate tax rate is 38%. Should Big Rock Brewery continue to rent, purchase its current machine, or purchase the advanced machine? To make this decision, calculate the /PV of the FCF associated with each alternative. (Note: the APV will be negative, and represents the PV of the costs of the machine in each case.) The NPV (rent the machine) is $ .

What are the annual CCA tax shields for the first five years? c. What is the present value of the first five CCA tax shields if the appropriate discount rate is 8% per year? d. What is the present value of all the CCA tax shields assuming the equiment is never sold and the appropriate discount rate is 8% per year? e. How might your answer to part (d) change if Spherical anticipates that its marginal corporate tax rate will increase substantially over the next five years? a.
