FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

1. My firm is considering replacing old equipment with a new, more efficient model. The old equipment bought three years ago for $100,000, has a 5 - year MACRS life and can be sold for $50,000 or used for three more years when its resale value will be zero. The new equipment will cost $210,000, will have a three-year MACRS recovery period and will have a resale value of $20,000 after three years when the project will end. The new equipment will increase revenue before taxes by $25,000 and decrease costs before taxes by $50,000 per year. The firm's tax rate is 40%, and the discount rate is 16%.

a) Calculate the depreciation for the old and new equipment for each year of their depreciable life.
