A company is considering replacing an old machine, which has a market value of $75,000 and a tax basis of $50,000. The new machine would cost $145,000 and would require an additional $12,000 in working capital for spare parts. If the company’s tax rate is 34%, what would be the initial cash outlay for this replacement project?

Answer:

$90,500

Explanation:

The computation of initial cash outlay is shown below:-

initial cash outlay = New machine cost + Increase in working capital - After tax salvage value

= $145,000 + $12,000 - (($75,000 - ($75,000 - $50,000) × 0.34

= $145,000 + $12,000 - $66,500

= $90,500

Therefore for computing the initial cash outlay we simply applied the above formula.
