You are calculating the SV at Time 10 for a replacement project. The new machine will be depreciated using MACRS for a 5-year asset class, and its expected salvage value at Time 10 is $8,000. The old machine is being depreciated on a straight-line basis to an expected salvage value at Time 10 of $2,000. Net working capital investments totaling $1,000 were made over the life of the project. Additional tax-deductible shutdown expenses of $500 are necessary at Time 10. If the tax rate is 30%, what is the value of SV at Time 10?
After tax sale value of old machine = Sale value - [(Sale value - book value)* tax rate]
= $2,000 - [($2,000 - $2,000)*30%]
= $2,000
After tax sale value of New Machine = Sale value - [(Sale value - book value)* tax rate]
= $8,000 - [($8,000 - $0) * 30%]
= $8,000 - $2,400
= $5,600
Net Working Capital Recoverd = $1,000
After tax Shutdown expenses = $500 * (1-30%) = $350
Salvage Value at time 10 = Sale Value of New Machine + Net Working Capital Recovered - Sale Value of Old Machine - After tax Shutdown expenses
= $5,600 + $1,000 - $2,000 - $350
= $4,250
Therefore, Salvage Value at time 10 is $4,250
