An asset used in a four-year project falls in the five-year MACRS class for tax purposes. The asset has an acquisition cost of $6,100,000 and will be sold for $1,300,000 at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the aftertax salvage value of the asset

$1,213,928

Explanation:

The calculation is given below:

Data provided in the question

Acquisition cost of an asset = $6,100,000

Sale value of an asset at the end of the project = $1,300,000

Tax rate = 35%

Therefore the after tax salvage value of the asset is

= $1,300,000 - ($1,300,000 - $6,100,000 × (11.52% + 5.76%)) × 35%

= $1,300,000 - $86,072

= $1,213,928

Refer to the MACRS table for the depreciation rate i.e 11.52% and 5.76%re

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
