62. Pique Corporation wants to purchase a new machine for $300,000. Management predicts
that the machine can produce sales of $200,000 each year for the next 5 years. Expenses are
expected to include direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead (excluding depreciation)
totaling $80,000 per year. The firm uses straight-line depreciation with no residual value for all
depreciable assets. Pique's combined income tax rate is 40%. Management requires a minimum
after-tax rate of return of 10% on all investments.
What is the approximate internal rate of return (IRR) of the investment? (NOTE: To answer this
question, students must have access to Table 2 from Appendix C, Chapter 12.) Assume that
annual after-tax cash flows occur at year-end.

operation of its business. The original cost of this asset was $28,000; since date of acquisition,
the company has taken a total of $20,000 of depreciation expense on this asset. The current

income tax rate of 34%. What is the projected after-tax cash flow associated with the sale of the
existing asset?
78. Carmino Company is considering an investment in equipment that is expected to
generate an after-tax income of $6,000 for each year of its four-year life. The asset has no
salvage value. The firm is in the 40% tax bracket. The net book value (NBV) of the investment at
the beginning of each year will be as follows:
Year 1 $30,000
Year 2 15,000

defined as a simple average of the average book value of the asset for each year of its four-year
life). Round the final answer to the nearest whole %.
