Floki Shipbuilding is considering purchasing a new fully integrated Computer Aided Design system. The new equipment can be purchased for $800,000 plus shipping and installation costs of $60,000. The company has already spent $55,000 on rewiring the rooms for the new system. The new machine is expected to have a useful life of seven years, at which time it will have a value of $130,000. The company estimates it will save $180,000 in annual operating cash outflows. Floki's weighted average cost of capital of 11% and its corporate tax rate is 31%. The CCA rate for the new system will be 30%. Floki plans to finance the new equipment with a bank loan requiring blended (i.e. principal and interest) quarterly payments of $58,000 over the next seven years. Use of this new system will reduce net operating working capital by $45,000.
