MACRS depreciation produces higher NPV
NPV would be higher by present value of depreciation*tax
rate=((313500-237500)/1.11+(427500-237500)/1.11^2+(142500-237500)/1.11^3+(66500-237500)/1.11^4)*40%=16228.22119

Click here to read the eBook: Analysis of an Expansion Project DEPRECIATION METHODS Charlene is evaluating a capital budgeting project that should last for 4 years. The project requires $950,000 of equipment. She is unsure what depreciation method to use in her analysis, straight-line or the 3-year MACRS accelerated method. Under straight-line depreciation, the cost of the equipment would be depreciated evenly over its 4-year life (ignore the half-year convention for the straight-line method). The applicable MACRS depreciation rates are...
