Suppose you have to decide whether selling an old machine or keeping it with a major overhaul:

A) Selling the machine at time zero for $750,000 with zero book value and paying the tax of 40%.

B) Keeping the machine, which requires a major overhaul cost of $1,000,000 at time zero. The overhaul cost is depreciable from time 0 to year 5 (over six years) based on MACRS 5-year life depreciation with the half year convention (table A-1 at IRS (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.). In this case machine can produce and generate equal annual revenue for five years (year 1 to 5) and salvage value of the machine will be $250,000 with zero book value at the end of year 5. The operating cost of the machine will be $400,000 per year from year 1 to year 5.

Calculate the minimum annual revenue that machine has to generate to break-even the selling with NPV of keeping the machine. Consider 40% income tax rate and after-tax minimum ROR of 8%.
