Lake Corporation has an activity-based costing system with three activity costs pools- Processing, Supervising, and Other. In the first stage allocations, costs in the two overhead accounts- equipment expense and indirect labor-are allocated to the three activity cost pools based on resource consumption. Data used in the first stage allocations follow:

Overhead costs:
Equipment expense $96,000
Indirect labor $4,000
Distribution of resource consumption across activity cost pools:

Processing (Activity Cost Pools) Supervising (Activity Cost Pools) Other (Activity Cost Pools)
Equipment expense 0.40 0.20 0.40
Indirect labor 0.30 0.50 0.20
Processing costs are assigned to products using machine-hours (MHs) and Supervising costs are assigned to products using the number of batches. The costs in the other activity cost pool are not assigned to products. Activity data for the company's two products follow:

Activity:

MHs (Processing) Batches (Supervising)
Product R4 6,800 400
Product L2 13,200 600
Total 20,000 1,000
Finally, the costs of Processing and Supervising are combined with the following sales and direct cost data to determine product margins.

Sales and direct cost data:

Product R4 Product L2
Sales (total) $234,600 $269,600
Direct materials (total) $81,100 $120,200
Direct labor (total) $116,600 $93,200

Shrieves casting company is considering adding a new line to its product mix, and the capital budgeting analysis is being conducted by sidney johnson, a recently graduated mba. the production line would be set up in unused space in the main plant. the machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another $10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional $30,000 to install the equipment. the machinery has an economic life of 4 years, and shrieves has obtained a special tax ruling that places the equipment in the macrs 3-year class. the machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of use. the new line would generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding depreciation. each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. the sales price and cost are both expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation. further, to handle the new line, the firm’s net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales revenues. the firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of capital, which is the risk-adjusted cost of capital for an average project (r), is 10%. define “incremental cash flow.” (1) should you subtract interest expense or dividends when calculating project cash flow?
