Managerial Accounting, 16e (Garrison)
Chapter 13C: Income Taxes and the Net Present Value Method
1) A capital budgeting project's incremental net income computation for purposes of determining
incremental tax expense includes immediate cash outflows for initial investments in equipment.
2) When a company invests in equipment, it is not ordinarily allowed to immediately expense the
entire cost of the equipment when computing taxable income.
3) Depreciation expense is not included in the computation of incremental net income when
determining the income tax expense associated with a capital budgeting project.
4) Under the simplifying assumptions made in the text, to calculate the amount of income tax
expense associated with an investment project, first calculate the incremental net cash inflow
during each year of the project and then multiply each year's incremental net cash inflow by the tax
rate.
5) Income taxes have no effect on whether a capital budgeting project should or should not be
accepted in a for-profit company.
6) A capital budgeting project's incremental net income computation for purposes of determining
incremental tax expense includes investments in working capital.
7) The investment in working capital at the start of an investment project can be deducted from
revenues when computing taxable income.
8) All cash inflows are taxable.
9) In net present value analysis, the release of working capital at the end of a project should be:
A) ignored.
B) included as a cash outflow.
C) included as a cash inflow.
D) included as a tax deduction.
10) In net present value analysis, an investment in equipment at the beginning of a project should
be:
A) ignored.
B) included as a cash outflow.
C) included as a cash inflow.
D) included as a tax deduction.
11) Nakama Corporation is considering investing in a project that would have a 4 year expected
useful life. The company would need to invest $280,000 in equipment that will have zero salvage
value at the end of the project. Annual incremental sales would be $640,000 and annual cash
operating expenses would be $480,000. In year 3 the company would have to incur one-time
renovation expenses of $50,000. Working capital in the amount of $20,000 would be required. The
working capital would be released for use elsewhere at the end of the project. The company uses
straight-line depreciation on all equipment. The company's tax rate is 30%.
The income tax expense in year 2:
A) $48,000
B) $12,000
C) $14,500
D) $27,000
