You must evaluate the purchase of a proposed spectrometer for the R&D department. The base price is $160,000, and it would cost another $40,000 to modify the equipment for special use by the firm. The equipment falls into the MACRS 3-year class and would be sold after 3 years for $80,000. The applicable depreciation rates are 33%, 45%, 15%, and 7%. The equipment would require a $7,000 increase in net operating working capital (spare parts inventory). The project would have no effect on revenues, but it should save the firm $52,000 per year in before-tax labor costs. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%. Required:
a. What is the initial investment outlay for the spectrometer, that is, what is the Year 0 project cash flow?
b. What are the project's annual cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3?
