Replacement versus expansion cash flows Tesla Systems has estimated the cash flows over the 5-year lives for two projects A and 8 These cash flows are summarized in the table below

  Project A Project B
Initial investment –$4,650,000 $1,550,000
Year Operating cash inflows
1 $ 560,000 $380,000
2 925,000 380,000
3 1,350,000 380,000
4 2,225,000 380,000
5 3,400,000 380,000
  1. a. If project A, which requires an initial investment of $4,650,000, is a replacement for project 8 and the $1,550,000 initial investment shown for project 8 is the after-tax cash inflow expected from liquidating project 8, what would be the net cash flows for this replacement decision?
  2. b. Instead, if project A is an expansion decision, what would be the net cash flows and how can it be viewed as a special form of a replacement decision? Explain.

Net cash flow and timeline depiction   For each of the following​ projects, determine the net cash​ flows, and depict the cash flows on a time line. a. A project that requires an initial investment of $123,000 and will generate annual operating cash inflows of $22,000 for the next 18 years. In each of the 18 ​years, maintenance of the project will require a $4,800 cash outflow. b. A new machine with an installed cost of $87,000. Sale of the old machine will yield $31,000 after taxes. Operating cash inflows generated by the replacement will exceed the operating cash inflows of the old machine by $22,000 in each year of a 6​-year period. At the end of year 6​, liquidation of the new machine will yield $17,000 after​ taxes, which is $10,000 greater than the​ after-tax proceeds expected from the old machine had it been retained and liquidated at the end of year 6. c. An asset that requires an initial investment of $3 million and will yield annual operating cash inflows of $293,000 for…
