The old press was purchased 2 years ago for an installed


Fine Press is considering replacing the existing press with a more efficient press. The new press costs $55,000 and requires $5,000 in installation costs. The old press was purchased 2 years ago for an installed cost of $35,000 and can be sold for $20,000 net of any removal costs today. Both presses are depreciated under the MACRS 5-year recovery schedule. The firm is in 40 percent marginal tax rate.

Calculate the book value of the existing press being replaced.
