Homework answers / question archive / You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines
You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. The Techron | costs $267,000, has a 3-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $72,000 per year. The Techron Il costs $465,000, has a 5-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $45,000 per year. For both milling machines, use straight-line depreciation to zero over the project's life and assume a salvage value of $49,000. If your tax rate is 23 percent and your discount rate is 13 percent, compute the EAC for both machines. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Answer is complete but not entirely correct. Techron $ -136,975.78 Techron II $ -491,160.15 X Which machine do you prefer? Techroni O Techron 11
TECHORON I & II SALVAGE VALUE= 49000
AFTER TAX SALVAGE VALUE = 49000(1-0.23)= 37730
