Which of the following provisions of the Internal Revenue Code can be used to reduce the amount of the income tax expense arising from capital investment projects?

A company is planning to purchase a machine that will cost $24,000, have a six-year life, and have no salvage value. The company expects to sell the machine's output of 3,000 units evenly throughout each year. Total income over the life of the machine is estimated to be $12,000. The machine will generate cash flows per year of $6,000. The accounting rate of return for the machine is 50%.

A qualitative characteristic that may impact upon capital investment analysis is manufacturing control.

The management of River Corporation is considering the purchase of a new machine costing $380,000. The company's desired rate of return is 6%. The present value factor for an annuity of $1 at interest of 6% for 5 years is 4.212. In addition to the foregoing information, use the following data in determining the acceptability in this situation: The average rate of return for this investment is:

Sunrise Inc. is considering a capital investment proposal that costs $227,500 and has an estimated life of four years and no residual value. The estimated net cash flows are as follows: The minimum desired rate of return for net present value analysis is 10%. The present value of $1 at compound interest rates of 10% for 1, 2, 3, and 4 years is .909, .826, .751, and .683, respectively. Determine the net present value.

If in evaluating a proposal by use of the net present value method there is a deficiency of the present value of future cash inflows over the amount to be invested, the proposal should be rejected.

A company is considering the purchase of a new machine for $48,000. Management expects that the machine can produce sales of $16,000 each year for the next 10 years. Expenses are expected to include direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead totaling $8,000 per year plus depreciation of $4,000 per year. All revenues and expenses except depreciation are on a cash basis. The payback period for the machine is 6 years.

A project has estimated annual cash flows of $95,000 for four years and is estimated to cost $260,000. Assume a minimum acceptable rate of return of 10%. Using the following tables determine the (a) net present value of the project and (b) the present value index, rounded to two decimal places. Below is a table for the present value of $1 at compound interest. Below is a table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest.

A company is contemplating investing in a new piece of manufacturing machinery. The amount to be invested is $100,000. The present value of the future cash flows at the company's desired rate of return is $100,000. The IRR on the project is 12%. Which of the following statements is true?

An 6-year project is estimated to cost $350,000 and have no residual value. If the straight-line depreciation method is used and the average rate of return is 12%, determine the estimated annual net income.

What is the present value of $8,000 to be received at the end of six years, if the required rate of return is 15%? Below is a table for the present value of $1 at compound interest. Below is a table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest.

The anticipated purchase of a fixed asset for $400,000, with a useful life of 5 years and no residual value, is expected to yield total net income of $200,000 for the 5 years. The expected average rate of return on investment is 50%.

Below is a table for the present value of $1 at Compound interest. Below is a table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest. Using the tables above, what would be the present value of $10,000 (rounded to the nearest dollar) to be received three years from today, assuming an earnings rate of 6%?
