Blue Line Machine Shop is considering a four-year project to
improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine press for
$420,000 is estimated to result in $165,000 in annual pretax cost
savings. The press falls in the MACRS five-year class, and it will
have a salvage value at the end of the project of $71,000. The
press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory
of $15,000, along with an additional $2,000 in inventory for each
succeeding year of the project. The shop’s tax rate is 35 percent
and the project's required return is 9 percent. Refer to Table
8.3.
Calculate the NPV of this project. (Do not round
intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal
places, e.g., 32.16.)
