You must evaluate the purchase of a proposed spectrometer for the R&D department. The base price is $80,000, and it would cost another $20,000 to modify the equipment for special use by the firm. The equipment falls into the MACRS 3-year class and would be sold after 3 years for $40,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7%. The equipment would require an $8,000 increase in net operating working capital (spare parts inventory). The project would have no effect on revenues, but it should save the firm $47,000 per year in before-tax labor costs. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 35%.

1. What is the initial investment outlay for the spectrometer, that is, what is the Year 0 project cash flow? Enter your answer as a positive value. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $
3. What are the project's annual cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest cent. Year 1: $ Year 2: $ Year 3: $
5. If the WACC is 13%, should the spectrometer be purchased?
