Jefferson Products Inc. is considering purchasing a new automatic press brake, which costs $$280,000$ including installation and shipping. The machine is expected to generate net cash inflows of $$50,000$ per year for $11$ years. At the end of $11$ years, the book value of the machine will be $$0,$ and it is anticipated that the machine will be sold for $$80,000.$ If the press brake project is undertaken, Jefferson will have to increase its net working capital by $$60,000.$ When the project is terminated in $11$ years, there will no longer be a need for this incremental working capital, and it can be liquidated and made available to Jefferson for other uses. Jefferson requires a $13$ percent annual return on this type of project and its marginal tax rate is $40$ percent. Use Table II and Table IV to answer the questions.
