9) Should financing costs such as the returns paid to bondholders and stockholders be considered
in computing after-tax operating cash flows? Why or why not?
Answer: Financing costs are not an incremental cash flow for capital budgeting purposes.
Financing costs are a direct consequence of how the project is financed, not whether the project
is economically viable. Financing costs are embedded in the required rate of return used to
discount project cash flows.

11.2 Discuss relevant cash flows, expansion versus replacement decisions, sunk costs and
opportunity costs, and international capital budgeting.
1) If a new asset is being considered as a replacement for an old asset, the relevant cash flows
would be found by adding the operating cash flows from the old asset to the operating cash flows
from the new asset.

________.

C) opportunity costs
D) sunk costs
Answer: C
Diff: 1
Learning Obj.: LG 2
13) Please explain the difference between a sunk cost and an opportunity cost and give an
example of each type of cost.
Answer: Sunk costs are cash outlays that have already been made (past outlays) and cannot be
recovered. Sunk costs have no effect on the cash flows relevant to the current decision. As a
result, sunk costs should not be included in a project's incremental cash flows.
Opportunity costs are cash flows that could be realized from the best alternative use of an asset
that is already in place. They, therefore, represent cash flows that will not be realized as a result
of employing that asset in the proposed project. Thus, any opportunity costs should be included
as cash outflows when one is determining a project's incremental cash flows.

percent taxes on both ordinary income and capital gain.
(a) Compute recaptured depreciation and capital gain (loss), if any.
(b) Find the firm's tax liability.

(a) Book Value = $120,000 (1 - 0.20 - 0.32) = $57,600
Recaptured depreciation = $125,000 - $57,600= $67,400
Capital gain = $125,000 - $120,000 = $5,000

Cuda Marine Engines, Inc. must develop the relevant cash flows for a replacement capital
investment proposal. The proposed asset costs $50,000 and has installation costs of $3,000. The
asset will be depreciated using a five-year recovery schedule. The existing equipment, which
originally cost $25,000 and will be sold for $10,000, has been depreciated using an MACRS
five-year recovery schedule and three years of depreciation has already been taken. The new
equipment is expected to result in incremental before-tax net profits of $15,000 per year. The
firm has a 40 percent tax rate.

Table 11.5
Nuff Folding Box Company, Inc. is considering purchasing a new gluing machine. The gluing
machine costs $50,000 and requires installation costs of $2,500. This outlay would be partially
offset by the sale of an existing gluer. The existing gluer originally cost $10,000 and is four years
old. It is being depreciated under MACRS using a five-year recovery schedule and can currently
be sold for $15,000. The existing gluer has a remaining useful life of five years. If held until year
5, the existing machine's market value would be zero. Over its five-year life, the new machine
should reduce operating costs (excluding depreciation) by $17,000 per year. Training costs of
employees who will operate the new machine will be a one-time cost of $5,000 which should be
included in the initial outlay. The new machine will be depreciated under MACRS using a five-
year recovery period. The firm has a 12 percent cost of capital and a 40 percent tax on ordinary
income and capital gains.
