Tax rate is 40nbsp cost of capital is 12 find the npvnbsp


Kitty's Cookies is considering replacing its #2 oven. The oven was installed 10 years ago at a cost of $300,000 and has been fully depreciated. The current market value of the old oven is $70,000.  A new high efficiency oven would cost $120,000.  It would be fully depreciated over 5 years using straight-line depreciation to a zero book value.  Annual sales would increase by $18,000 due to the increased productivity of the new oven. Improved energy efficiency would reduce annual operating costs by $20,000.  Tax rate is 40%.  Cost of capital is 12%. Find the NPV.  Should they replace the #2 oven with a new one? Assume a 5-year planning horizon and a horizon value of zero.
