A backhoe with a book value of $134,000 has an estimated remaining 5 year life. A proposal is offered to sell the equipment for $17,000 and replace it with a new one costing $220,000. The new equipment has a 5-year life with no residual value. The new equipment would reduce annual insurance costs by $46,000. REQUIRED: Provide a differential analysis on the proposal to replace the backhoe.

Consider the following alternatives for a heating system: Alternative A: Rent a heating system at a cost of $500 per year over a 10-year period. Installation charge of $300 and no salvage value. It is expected to provide energy savings of $200 per year. Alternative B: Purchase a heating system for a total cost of $3,600, including installation. It has a salvage value of $1000 after 10 years of service, and is expected to provide energy savings of $500 per year. Alternative C: Purchase a heating system for a total cost of $8,000, including installation. Half of the cost is paid now and the other half is paid at the end of three years. It has a salvage value of $1.000 after 10 years and is expected to provide energy savings of $1,000 per year. For a MARR of 12%. which heating system should be installed?
You have been asked to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new portable MRI. The system’s price is $70,000 and it will cost another $20,000 for transportation and installation the system is expected to be sold after three years because a new stationary machine will be acquired at that time the best estimate of the system salvage value after three years is $30,000 the system will have no impact on volume or reimbursement (and hence revenues) but it is expected to save $20,000 per year in operating costs the not for profit business corporate cost of capital is 10% and the standard risk adjustment is 4% points What is the project's net investment outlay at time 0? What are the projects operating cash flows in years 1, 2, and 3? What is the terminal cash flow at the end of year 3? If the project has average risk, it is expected to be profitable?
