Liberty Services is now at the end of the final year of a project. The equipment was purchased prior to the new tax law and originally cost $20,000, of which 75% has been depreciated. The firm can sell the used equipment today for $6,000, and its tax rate is 25%. What is the equipment's after-tax salvage value for use in a capital budgeting analysis? Note that if the equipment's final market value is less than its book value, the firm will receive a tax credit as a result of the sale that will offset income from the company's other projects. $6,380 $4,180 $5,750 $5,335 $5,060 Poulsen Industries is analyzing an average-risk project, and the following data have been developed. Unit sales will be constant, but the sales price should increase with inflation. Fixed costs will also be constant, but variable costs should rise with inflation. The project should last for 3 years. Under the new tax law, the equipment for the project is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, so it will be fully depreciated at t 0. At the end of the project's life, the equipment will have no salvage value. No change in net operating working capital (NOWC) would be required for the project This is just one of many projects for the firm, so any losses on this project can be used to offset gains on other firm projects. The marketing manager does not think it is necessary to adjust for inflation since both the sales price and the variable costs will rise at the same rate, but the CFO thinks an inflation adjustment is required. What is the difference in the expected NPV if the inflation adjustment is made versus if it is not made? Do not round the intermediate calculations and round the final answer to the nearest whole number WACC 10.0% Equipment cost $200,000 Units sold 54,000 $25.00 Average price per unit, Year 1 Fixed op. cost excl. depr.
