The president of the company you work for has asked you to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new chromatograph for the rm's R&D department. The equipment's basic price is $190,000, and it would cost another $47,500 to modify it for special use by your firm. The chromatograph, which falls into the MACRS 3year class, would be sold after 3 years for $66,500. The MACRS rates for the first 3 years are 0.3333, 0.4445 and 0.1481. Use of the equipment would require an increase in net working capital (spare parts inventory) of $11,400. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $57,000 per year in beforetax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm's marginal federalplusstate tax rate is 35%. a.
