The Division of the Culver Company, a profitable, diversified manufacturing firm, purchased a machine five years ago at a cost of $10,000. The machine had an expected life of 10 years at time of purchase and a zero estimated salvage value at the end of the 10 years. It is being depreciated on a straight-line basis and has a book value of $5,000 at present. The division manager reports that he can buy a new machine for $15,000 (including installation) which, over its 15 year life, will expand sales from $10,000 to $11,000 a year. Further, it will reduce labor and raw materials usage sufficiently to cut operating costs from $7,000 to $5,000. The old machine's current market value is $1,000. Taxes are at a 6% rate and are paid annually. The ACRS class life of the new machine is five years with corresponding recovery deduction percentages of 15%, 22%, 21%, 21%, and 21%. The firm's cost of capital is 15%. Should Culver buy the new machine?
