Universal Electronics is considering the purchase of manufacturing equipment with a 10-year midpoint in its asset depreciation range (ADR). (Hint: It is not 10 years.) The asset will cost $200,000, and it will produce earnings before depreciation and taxes of $60,000 per year for three years, and then $30,000 a year for seven more years. The firm has a tax rate of 25 percent. Assume the cost of capital is 12 percent. In doing your analysis, if you have years in which there is no depreciation, merely enter a zero for depreciation
a. Calculate the net present value. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
