Mr$.$ Agirich of Aggie Farms is thinking about investing in a center pivot irrigation system to irrigate $100$ acres of land. The irrigation system costs $$70,000.$ Mr$.$ Agirich expects that the irrigation system will increase yield and thus operating receipts by $$15,000$ per year but it will cost $$4,000$ a year to pay for electricity, maintenance, and additional labor. Mr$.$ Agirich plans on keeping the irrigation system for $4$ years before replacing it with a new one and he thinks he can sell it for $$50,000$ at the end of $4$ years. Assume that the Mr$.$ Agirich expects that the inflation rate will be $4\%$ and that operating receipts, operating expenses, and terminal value will increase at the rate of inflation $($i$.$e$.,$ operating receipts, operating expenses and terminal value are stated as real dollars, thus, you must convert them to nominal dollars$).$ The bank has offered to lend Mr$.$ Agirich $$60,000.$ The loan will be fully amortized at a $10\%$ interest rate over six years $($annual payments$).$ Mr$.$ Agirich anticipates that his marginal tax rate over the next four years will be $20\%.$ The IRS will allow Aggie Farms to depreciate the investment using straight$-$line over $10$ years. Mr$.$ Agirich requires at least a $13\%$ pre$-$tax, risk$-$free return on capital and a $2\%$ risk premium on projects of comparable risk to the irrigation system.
