7. A firm must choose between leasing a new asset or purchasing it with funds
from a term loan. Under the purchase option, the firm will pay five equal
principal payments of P1,000 each and 6% interest on the unpaid balance.
Principal and interest are due at the each year for five years. Alternatively,
the firm can lease the asset for five years at an annual rental cost of P1,400
with payments due at the beginning of each year. The corporate tax rate is
35% and the appropriate after-tax cost of capital is 12%.
Which of the following is closest to the present value of the after-tax cost of
leasing the new asset?
a.
b.

The university could continue to use the present bus for the next seven years. If the
new bus is purchased, it will be used for the next 7 years and then traded in for
another bus. The university uses a discount rate of 12% and the total cost approach
to net present value analysis in evaluating its investment decisions.
If the new bus is purchased, the present value of all cash flows that occur now is

10.The president of Trial Company is considering a proposal by the factory
manager for the purchase of a machine for P44,000, the useful life would be
eight years with no residual scrap value. The use of the machine will produce
a positive annual cash flow of P10,000 a year for eight years. An annuity
table shows the present value of P1 received annually for eight years and
discounted at 12% is 4.968. the net present value of the proposal, discounted
at 12% is:
a. P5,680 positive
b. Zero
c. P2,186 negative

saving promised by the machine is
a. P25,000
b. P50,000
c. P35,000
d. P20,000
Answer: A
Investment required / Net annual cash inflow = Factor of the internal rate of return
P83,150/net annual cash inflow = 3.326
P83,150 / 3.326 = net annual cash inflow
= P25,000
