The president of your company, Morchuck Enterprises, has asked you to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new chromatograph for the firm's R&D department. The equipment's basic price is $69,000, and it would cost another $15,500 to modify it for special use by your firm. The chromatograph, which falls into the MACRS 3-year dass, would be sold after 3 years for $28,500. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445 and 0.1481 (lonore the half-year convention for the straight-line method.) Use of the equipment would require an increase in net working capital (spare parts inventory) of $3,940. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $22,570 per year in before tax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%, Cash outflows and negative NPV value, farvy, should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. a. What is the Year-O net cash flow? 5 b. What are the net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 32 (Note: Do not include recovery of NWC or salvage value in Year 3's calculation here.) Year 1: Year 2: Year 3: $ $ c. What is the additional (nonoperating) cash flow in Year 37 $ d. If the project's cost of capital is 12%, what is the NPV of the project? $ Should the chromatograph be purchased? -Select
