Examples of MACRS property classes: 3-year property - includes small tools, houses, and assets used in research and development activities (assets with a class life of 4 years or less) 5-year property - includes automobiles, trucks, computers and peripheral equipment, and office machines (assets with a class life of 4-10 years) 7-year property - includes office furniture and fixtures, agriculture equipment, oil exploration and development equipment, railroad track, manufacturing equipment, and any property not designated by law as being in any other class (assets with a class life of 10-16 years) 10-year property - includes railroad tank cars, mobile homes, boilers, and certain public utility property (assets with a class life of 16-20 years) 15-year property - includes roads, shrubbery, and certain low-income housing (assets with a class life of 20-25 years) 20-year property - includes waste-water treatment plants and sewer systems (assets with a class life of more than 25 years) 27.5 year property - includes residential rental property 31.5 year property - includes nonresidential real property

24. Book Value of an Asset

25. After-tax Salvage Values

26. NPV -- dealing with salvage values • Ristorante Roma is considering opening a new property in Fort Worth. The new restaurant requires an initial investment of $200,000 in fixed assets, which will be depreciated using straight-line method to zero over their ten-year life. The fixed assets will be used for five years, and then sold for $120,000. If the tax rate is 34%, what is the after-tax salvage value of the asset? Sale of asset: $120,000 Book value of the asset: $100,000 Book gain $20,000 Taxes, at 34% $6,800

31. Replacement Projects • Suppose you consider replacing your old computer, which you bought two years ago for $2,400. You can sell it today for $900. The new computer will cost you $3,200, and will provide cost savings of $600 a year over the next four years. Both the new and the old machine are depreciated over four years, straight-line. The tax rate is 34%, and the cost of capital is 12%. Should you replace the computer? • Also see Chapter 7 / Problem 12

33. Equivalent annual costs • Projects with different lives You want to install a new software. You have the following two offers: • Package A costs $100 to purchase and $10 to maintain. Its license must be renewed every two years. • Package B costs $140 to purchase and $8 to maintain. It must be renewed every three years. • Your discount rate is 10%. Ignore taxes.

34. Equivalent Annual Cost Equivalent Annual Cost - The cost per period with the same present value as the cost of buying and operating a machine.

35. Equivalent Annual Cost Equivalent Annual Cost - The cost per period with the same present value as the cost of buying and operating a machine.

36. Present Values: PV(A) = - $100 - $10 / 1.1 - $10 / 1.12 = - $117.36 PV(B) = -$140 - $8 / 1.1 - $8 / 1.12 - $8 / 1.13 = -$159.89 • Equivalent Annual Costs: • Annuity factor, 2 years, 10% = 1.7355 • Annuity factor, 3 years, 10% = 2.4869 • EAC(A) = -$117.36 / 1.7355 = -$67.62 • EAC(B) = -$159.89 / 2.4869 = -$64.29
