The Gabriel Co. is considering a 7-year project that would require a cash outlay of $140,000 for machinery and an additional $30,000 for working capital that would be released at the end of the project. The equipment would be depreciated evenly over the 7 years and have a salvage value of $ 7,000 at the end of 7 years. The project would generate before tax annual cash inflows of $41,500. The tax rate is 20% and the company's discount rate is 12%.
