Quip corporation wants to purchase a new machine for $300,000. management predicts that the machine will produce sales of $200,000 each year for the next 5 years. expenses are expected to include direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead (excluding depreciation) totaling $80,000 per year. the firm uses straight-line depreciation with an assumed residual (salvage) value of $50,000. quip's combined income tax rate, t, is 40%.
management requires a minimum after-tax rate of return of 10% on all investments. what is the estimated net present value (npv) of the proposed investment (rounded to the nearest hundred)? (the pv annuity factor for 10%, 5 years, is 3.791 and for 4 years it is 3.17. the present value $1 factor for 10%, 5 years, is 0.621.) assume that after-tax cash inflows occur at year-end.
a) $48,800.
b) $99,000.
c) $112,000.
d) $79,800

net present value NPV = $79800

so correct option is D) $79,800

Explanation:

solution

we knw that Net Present value = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow    ............1

so here PV of cash outflow = $300000  

and Net sales = $200000

expenses = $80000

Depreciation =  

Depreciation =  $50000

so Net income before taxes  = Net sales - Depreciation - expenses

Net income before taxes =  $200000  - $80000 - $50000

Net income before taxes =  $70000

and Tax expenses @ 40% = $28000

so

Net income = Net income before taxes - Tax expenses

Net income = $70000  - $28000

Net income = $42000

and

Depreciation = $50000

Net cash inflow =  Net income + Depreciation

Net cash inflow =  $42000  + $50000

Net cash inflow = $92000

and

PVIFA @ 10% 5 years = $3.7908

so

PV of cash inflow = $348755

PV of salvage value = $50000 ×0.6209

PV of salvage value = $31045

and

so here  Total PV of total cash inflow = $379800

and

net present value  NPV =  Total PV of total cash inflow - PV of cash outflow

net present value NPV = $379800 - $300000

net present value NPV = $79800

so correct option is D) $79,800

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
