CTC 475 Review Depreciation

Historical Methods Straight Line (SL) Declining Balance (DB-200% or 150%) Sum of the Years Digits (SOYD or SYD)

Current Method MACRS-GDS or ADS

ObjectivesUnderstand the basics of graduated taxes

Know how to develop an ATCF using depreciation allowances

Tax Concepts Taxes affect cash flows Any economic analysis should be on an

after-tax basis ATCF’s are develop by adjusting BTCF’s for

taxes paid or received Taxes are affected by BTCF, tax rate and

depreciation

Types of TaxesIncome Tax

Function of net income (gross revenues-deductions)Federal, State and/or Local

Sales TaxTax on purchases Independent of income

Property TaxTax on amount of property you own—(schools, counties) Independent of income

Excise TaxTax on amount of sales of non-necessary goods & services Independent of income

Which tax do we consider?Usually income tax

Tax Rate is Graduated On first 50K company pays 15% On next 25K company pays 25% On next 25K company pays 34% On next 235K company pays 39% >235K company pays 34%

(up to 10 million)

Example ProblemA small company with TI=$50K is considering

an investment which would increase it’s TI by $45K (Total = $95K)

What would be the company’s increased tax liability?

Without InvestmentW/O Investment

(TI=$50K)

Tax=15% * $50K

= $7,500(effective rate =15%)

With Investment (TI=$95K)

Tax=15% * $50K +25% * $25K +34% * $20K

=$20,550(effective rate=21.6%)

Example ProblemIncreased tax liability:

$20,500-$7,500=$13,050

$13,050/$45,000=29%

29% of 45K would be paid in taxes

ATCFNet Income=Gross Income-Deductions

(salaries, wages, repairs, rent, etc.)

Taxable Income=Net Income-Depreciation

Tax=Tax Rate * Taxable Income

ATCF=BTCF-Taxes

Notes:If you add depreciation amounts (MACRS-

GDS) you should get the cost basis

Also remember that depreciation lasts one more year than the recovery period (i.e. 6 instead of 5 years)

PW of ATCFMust take each year back to zero (no series

because each year has a different number)

PW=-$82K+$21,086(P/F15,1)+$24,432(P/F15,2)

PW of ATCF=$3,010 (still cost effective)

ATCF’s are impacted by:Depreciation methodsRecovery periodPlanning horizonDifferent tax rates BTCF

Other comments:Depreciation is not a cash flow but is needed

to determine taxesTaxes are a cash flowUnder MACRS-GDS the sum of depreciation

amounts should equal the cost basisNegative taxes--assumes a company is able to

reduce it’s overall taxes

MARRIn the previous example, the same MARR was

used to determine PW of the BTCF and ATCF

A lower MARR is acceptable for after-tax cash flows

General Rule:For BTCF, use before-tax MARRFor ATCF, use after-tax MARR

Before-Tax MARR; After-Tax MarrApproximate relationship between the two:

BT MARR=AT MARR/(1-Effective Tax Rate)

Example:BTCF MARR=25% and tax rate is 40%ATCF MARR is approximately 15%
