Universal Electronics is considering the purchase of manufacturing equipment with a 10-year midpoint in its asset depreciation range (ADR). Carefully refer to Table 1211 to determine in what depreciation category the asset falls. (Hint: It is not 10 years.) The asset will cost $210,000, and it will produce earnings before depreciation and taxes of $70,000 per year for three years, and then $34,000 a year for seven more years. The firm has a tax rate of 25 percent. Assume the cost of capital is 14 percent. In doing your analysis, if you have years in which there is no depreciation, merely enter a zero for depreciation. Use Table 1212.Use Appendix B for an approximate answer but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods.

Calculate the net present value.

Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.
