The purchase of a new gym requires an investment of 650,000 in new equipment, which will be depreciated straight-line to a zero book value over its three-year life. The market value of the equipment at the end of the project is expected to be 30% of its original cost. Annual sales from this project are estimated at $225,000 with cash expenses (not including depreciation) of $130,000. Net working capital level in each year is predicted to be 12% of the following year’s sales. The tax rate is 25%.
What is the total free cash flow in Year 0 and what is the operating cash flow in Year 1
Year 0:
There is negative cash flow (means outflow), since there is an aggregate of investment in equipment and net working capital for year 1 (the following year).
Cash flow = Investment + Net working capital
= - [650,000 + (225,000 × 12%)]
= - [650,000 + 27,000]
= - $677,000 (Answer)
Year 1:
Depreciation expense = (Investment cost – (Investment cost × 30%)) / Life years
= (650,000 – (650,000 × 30%)) / 3
= (650,000 – 195,000) / 3
= 455,000 / 3
= 151,666
Taxable income = Annual sales – (Cash expenses + Depreciation)
= 225,000 – (130,000 + 151,666)
= 225,000 – 281,666
= - 56,666
Tax = Taxable income × 25%
= - 56,666 × 25%
= - 14,167
Cash flow = - Net working capital + (Taxable income – Tax + Depreciation)
= - 27,000 + (- 56,666 – (-14,167) + 151,666)
= - 27,000 + (- 56,666 + 14,167 + 151,666)
= - 27,000 + 109,167
= $82,167 (Answer)

The Bistro is planning to add a new line of noodles that will require the acquisition of new processing equipment. The equipment will cost $1,000,000, including installation and shipping. It will be depreciated straight-line to zero value over the 10-year economic life of the project. Interest cost associated with financing the equipment purchase is estimated to be $40,000 annually. The expected salvage value of the machine at the end of 10 years is $200,000. One year ago a marketing survey...
. The new equipment will have a cost of $9,000,000, and it will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over a period of six years (years 1-6) The old machine is also being depreciated on a straight-line basis. It has a book value or 200,000 (at year 0) and four more years of depreciation left ($50,000 per year). . The new equipment will have a salvage value of $0 at the end of the project's life (year 6).

Graziano Corporation (GC) is considering a project to purchase new equipment. The equipment would be depreciated by the straight-line method over its 3-year life and would have a zero-salvage value. The project requires an investment of $6,000 today on net working capital. Revenues and other operating costs are expected to be constant over the project's 3-year life. However, this project would compete with other company’s products and would reduce its pre-tax annual cash flows of $5,000 per year. The investment...

7A) Quad Enterprises is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.9 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $2,190,000 in annual sales, with costs of $815,000. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the OCF for this project? Suppose the required return on the project is 12 percent. What...
A project requires an initial fixed asset investment of $600,000, which will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the six-year life of the project. The pre-tax salvage value of the fixed assets at the end of the project is estimated to be $50,001. Projected sales volume for each year of the project is shown below. The sale price is $50 per unit for the first three years, and $45 per unit for years 4 through 1. A $30,000 initial investment...

Consider an asset that costs $650,000 and is depreciated straight-line to zero over its 8-year tax life. The asset is to be used in a 6-year project; at the end of the project, the asset can be sold for $123,000. If the relevant tax rate is 23 percent, what is the aftertax cash flow from the sale of this asset? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) Aftertax Salvage Value ?
