Comparison of Depreciation between Two Machines
Question
You have been asked to choose between two pollution devices. The “Wet Scrub” costs $1,000 to set up and $500 per year to operate. It must be completely replaced every 3 years and it will have a salvage value of $100 when replaced. The “Dry Scrub” device costs $2,000 to set up but only $300 a year to operate. It lasts for 5 years and has no salvage value. In order to arrive at these estimates for the operating costs, you hired a consultant who has invoiced the company for $350. Both devices can be depreciated using straight line depreciation and the tax rate for the firm is 30%. Assuming that pollution control equipment is replaced as it wears out, and that the cost of capital is 10%, which device do you recommend?
Summary
The question belongs to Finance and it is about the comparison between two pollution devices, their operational costs per year, their depreciation and the cost of capital. You have to recommend which of the two devices is cost effective both in terms of initial investment, operational cost and cost of capital.

Writing Algorithm is not an easy job! Especially for a third semester student! I was really lost and was not sure about what exactly to do. I was seriously thinking of quitting the course and returning home when I came across TheReliableTutor.com. Since then it is a wonderful experience. Not only that I know the difference between a Java code and MSQL one but also I got good grades and things are looking very positive."

I moved to Australia from the UK to pursue my masters degree in criminal law. I was having trouble adapting to the difference in the teaching pattern and needed just that extra boost from my tutor in a timely manner. HwA law tutors have never disappointed me and they have been providing me all the support I need in a timely manner."

I was really stuck with my human structure assignments when I came across TheReliableTutor.com. To be honest, I was skeptical. Then I got an A in my cardiovascular systems assignment. That was the first work they did for me. From there it only got better. I am now thinking of doing my MSN and will definitely seek their help for that."

The accounting tutors here can surely make the numbers talk. In my freshmen year, I was unable to understand what to put under assets and what under liabilities. It was back then I took their help and also helped me understand why “capital investment†is a liability to the business. I am doing my Masters now and still take their help.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
