the end of five years. If the company buys the new machine, the old machine will be sold now
for $65,000(book value is $73,000). The new machine will cost $600,000 and will be
depreciated for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over its useful life of 5 years. The new
machine will not have a salvage value and will not be sold after its useful life. An additional
cash investment in working capital of $50,000 will be required if the new machine is purchased.

year of operation. The expected before tax cash net inflow for years two through five is
$220,000 each year. These cash flows do not include depreciation and are recognized at the end
of each year. The working capital investment will not be recovered at the end of the asset's life.
