QUESTION 3- A new electronic process monitor costs $990,000. This cost could be depreciated at 30% per year (Class 10). The monitor would actually be worthless in five years.

QUESTION 8- Fox Hollow Franks is looking at a new system with an installed cost of $540,000. This equipment is depreciated at a rate of 20% per year (Class 8) over the projects five-year life, at the end of which the sausage system can be sold for $80,000.

You will save $130,000 before taxes per year in order-processing costs and you will be able to reduce working capital by $60,000 (this is a one-time reduction). If the tax rate is 35%, what is the IRR for this project? (Round the final answer to 2 decimal places.)

QUESTION 10 -We have been requested by a large retailer to submit a bid for a new point-of-sale credit checking system. The system would be installed, by us, in 89 stores per year for three years. We would need to purchase $1,300,000 worth of specialized equipment. This will be depreciated at a 20% CCA rate. We will sell it in three years, at which time it will be worth about half of what we paid for it. Labour and material cost to install the system is about $96,000 per site. Finally, we need to invest $340,000 in working capital items. The relevant tax rate is 36%. What price per system should we bid if we require a 20% return on our investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $ sign in your response.)
Bid price $ per system
QUESTION 11- Lobo is a leading manufacturer of positronic brains, a key component in robots. The company is considering two alternative production methods. The costs and lives associated with each are:
Year | Method 1 | Method 2 | ||||||
0 | $ | 6,700 | $ | 9,900 | ||||
1 | 400 | 620 | ||||||
2 | 400 | 620 | ||||||
3 | 400 | 620 | ||||||
4 | 620 | |||||||
Assuming that Lobo will not replace the equipment when it wears out, what is the present value of both methods (r = 13%)? Ignore depreciation and taxes in answering. (Negative answers should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answers to 2 decimal places. Omit $ sign in your response.)

QUESTION 12- We project unit sales for a new household-use laser-guided cockroach search and destroy system as follows:
Year | Unit Sales |
1 | 101,000 |
2 | 113,000 |
3 | 136,000 |
4 | 142,000 |
5 | 95,000 |
The new system will be priced to sell at $475 each.
The cockroach eradicator project will require $2,200,000 in net working capital to start, and total net working capital will rise to 15% of the change in sales. The variable cost per unit is $345, and total fixed costs are $2,500,000 per year. The equipment necessary to begin production will cost a total of $22 million. This equipment is mostly industrial machinery and thus qualifies for CCA at a rate of 20%. In five years, this equipment will actually be worth about 20% of its cost.
The relevant tax rate is 35%, and the required return is 17%. Based on these preliminary estimates, what is the NPV of the project? (Enter the answer in dollars. Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $ sign in your response.)

QUESTION 13- An officer for a large construction company is feeling nervous. The anxiety is caused by a new excavator just released onto the market. The new excavator makes the one purchased by the company a year ago obsolete. As a result, the market value for the companys excavator has dropped significantly, from $600,000 a year ago to $50,000 now. In ten years, it would be worth only $3,000. The new excavator costs only $950,000 and would increase operating revenues by $90,000 annually. The new equipment has a ten-year life and expected salvage value of $175,000. The tax rate is 35%, the CCA rate, 25% for both excavators, and the required rate of return for the company is 14%. What is the NPV of the new excavator? (Negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $ sign in your response.)
NPV $
What should the officer do?
multiple choice
Replace the existing excavator.
Do not replace the existing excavator.
