Correct Question 4 Swindler Ltd has completed a feasibility study costing $24,934 to determine if there is any benefit in purchasing a new asset. The machine will cost $358,671 and an additional $13,059 will need to be spent to have the machine in operational state. Before the machine can be used staff must be trained at a further cost of $5,976. The project is expected to last for 5 years and the Taxation Office has confirmed this. At the end of the project the machine will be fully depreciated. Initial advertising costs are expected to $22,863 and additional stock of $71,921 will be needed. Wages will change from $85,000 to $56,453 and Fixed Costs will remain at $35,345. The new machine is expected to produce sales of $1,954,719 in the first year and will grow by 12% each year of the project. Material costs will be 24% of sales in each year. You are required to calculate the net cash flow (round to the nearest dollar and DO NOT include $ sign) that would appear in Year 1 of a Capital Budget. Assume the Australian Company tax Rate applies. 1,026,277 Correct Question 4 Swindler Ltd has completed a feasibility study costing $24,934 to determine if there is any benefit in purchasing a new asset.
