24. Net present value profile (LO4) Davis Chili Company is considering an investment of
$15,000, which produces the following inflows:

You are going to use the net present value profile to approximate the value for the internal
rate of return. Please follow these steps:
a. Determine the net present value of the project based on a zero discount rate.
b. Determine the net present value of the project based on a 10 percent discount rate.
c. Determine the net present value of the project based on a 20 percent discount rate
(it will be negative).
d. Draw a net present value profile for the investment and observe the discount rate at
which the net present value is zero. This is an approximation of the internal rate of
return based on the interpolation procedure presented in this chapter. Compare your
answer in parts d and e.
e. Actually compute the internal rate of return based on the interpolation procedure
presented in this chapter. Compare your answers in parts d and e.

25. MACRS depreciation and cash flow (LO2) Telstar Commumications is going to
purchase an asset for $300,000 that will produce $140,000 per year for the next four years
in earnings before depreciation and taxes. The asset will be depreciated using the three-year
MACRS depreciation schedule in Table 12–9 on page ___. (This represents four years of
depreciation based on the half-year convention.) The firm is in a 35 percent tax bracket.
Fill in the schedule below for the next four years.

26. MACRS depreciation categories (LO4) Assume $60,000 is going to be invested in each
of the following assets. Using Tables 12–8 and 12–9, indicate the dollar amount of the first
year’s depreciation.
a. Office furniture.
b. Automobile.
c. Electric and gas utility property.
d. Sewage treatment plant.
12-26. Solution:
a. Office furniture – Based on Table 12-8, this falls under
7-year MACRS depreciation. Then examining Table 12-9,
the first year depreciation rate is .143. Thus:
$60,000 .143 $8,580=
b. Automobile – This falls under 5-year MACRS depreciation.
This first year depreciation rate is .200.
$60,000 .200 $12,000=
c. Electric and gas utility property – This falls under 20-year
MACRS depreciation. The first year depreciation rate is .038.
$60,000 .038 $2,280=

d. Sewage treatment plant – This falls under 15-year MACRS
depreciation. This first year depreciation rate is .050.

27. MACRS depreciation and net present value (LO4) The Summitt Petroleum Corporation
will purchase an asset that qualifies for three-year MACRS depreciation. The cost is
$80,000 and the asset will provide the following stream of earnings before depreciation and
taxes for the next four years:
Year 1.................. $36,000
Year 2.................. 40,000
Year 3.................. 31,000
Year 4.................. 19,000
The firm is in a 35 percent tax bracket and has an 11 percent cost of capital. Should it
purchase the asset? Use the net present value method.
