A couple of hints for Quiz 2:
“Operating Cash Flow” is same as “Annual Cash Flow”
“After-tax cash flow from the sale” is same as solving for “After-tax Salvage Value”. Note:
After-tax Salvage Value = SV -t*(SV-BV)
When the questions asks to solve for, say, “Total Cash Flow for Year 4” and Year 4 is the last
year of the project, then Cash flow in Year 4 will be “Operating Cash Flow + Terminal Cash
Flow”.
If depreciation is straight-line, then calculate depreciation each year as (Purchase Price +
Shipping and Installation and Modification Costs)/Class Life of Asset.
Unless otherwise mentioned, you can assume that class life of asset and project life is same.
