1. Consider an asset that costs $810,000 and is depreciated straight-line to zero over its nine-year tax life. The asset is to be used in a five-year project; at the end of the project, the asset can be sold for $185,000. If the relevant tax rate is 30 percent, what is the aftertax cash flow from the sale of this asset?
(Do not round intermediate calculations.)
2. Quad Enterprises is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.64 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless.
The project is estimated to generate $2,060,000 in annual sales, with costs of $755,000. The tax rate is 35 percent and the required return on the project is 13 percent. What is the project's NPV?
(Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
