Consider the following data
- A machine costs $600 today (year 0). Assume this investment is fully tax-deductible, as stipulated by the new US corporate tax code of 2018.
- This company has current pre-tax profits from other 2020s that are greater than $600, so it can take full advantage of the investment tax break above in year 0.
- The machine will generate operating profits before depreciation (EBITDA) of $210 per year for 5 years. The first cash flow happens one year after the machine is put in place (year 1).
- Depreciation is not tax-deductible. Notice that you do not need to calculate depreciation at all to solve this problem since it has no effect on taxes.
- The tax rate is 21%
- There is no salvage value at the end of the four years (the machine is worthless), and no required working capital investment.
