ABC will purchase a machine that will cost $2,575,000. Required modifications will cost $375,000. ABC will need to invest $75,000 for additional inventory. The machine has an IRS approved useful life of 7 years; it is presumed to have no salvage value. ABC plans to depreciate the machine by using the straight-line method. The machine is expected to increase ABC's sales revenues by $1,890,000 per year; operating costs excluding depreciation are estimated at $454,600 per year. Assume that the firm's tax rate is 40%. What is the annual operating cash flow?

Answer:

The Annual Operating Cash Flow is $1,029,811.43

Explanation:

Initial Investment = Cost of Machine + Modification Cost

Initial Investment = $2,575,000 + $375,000

Initial Investment = $2,950,000

Salvage Value = $0

Useful Life = 7 years

Depreciation per year = (Initial Investment - Salvage Value) / Useful Life

Depreciation per year = ($2,950,000 - $0) / 7

Depreciation per year = $421,428.57

Annual Operating Cash Flow = (Sales – Operating Costs) * (1 – Tax Rate) + Tax Rate * Depreciation

Annual Operating Cash Flow = ($1,890,000 - $454,600) * (1 - 0.40) + 0.40 * $421,428.571

Annual Operating Cash Flow = $1,435,400 * 0.60 + 0.40 * $421,428.571

Annual Operating Cash Flow = $1,029,811.4284

Annual Operating Cash Flow = $1,029,811.43
