Incremental operating cash inflowsA firm is considering renewing its equipment to meet increased demand for its product. The cost of equipment modifications is $1.96 million plus $114,000 in installation costs. The firm will depreciate the equipment modifications under MACRS, using a 5-year recovery period (see table). Additional sales revenue from the renewal should amount to $1.21 million per year, and additional operating expenses and other costs (excluding depreciation and interest) will amount to 35% of the additional sales. The firm is subject to a tax rate of 40%. (Note: Answer the following questions for each of the next 6 years.)
