A firm can purchase a centrifugal separator (5-year MACRS property) for $17,000. The estimated salvage value is $4,000 after a useful life of six years. Operating and maintenance (O&M) costs for the first year are expected to be$1,700. These O&M costs are projected to increase by $500 per year each year thereafter. The income tax rate is 25% and the MARR is 13% after taxes. What must the uniform annual benefits be for the purchase of the centrifugal separator to be economical on an after-tax basis?
The uniform annual benefits should be........... (Round to the nearest dollar.)
New equipment costing $30,000 has a 5-year life and no salvage value. Benefits are expected to be $8000
per year. The equipment qualifies for 100% bonus depreciation. The firm has a 28% combined marginal
