A farmer is thinking about investing in a center pivot irrigation system to irrigate 80 acres of land in Fresno. With an irrigation system, operating expenses would increase by $75 per acre due to electricity, maintenance and additional labor. It is estimated that the irrigation will increase yields and thus operating receipts by $150 per acre. The cost for drilling a well would be $8,200 and the cost for the center pivot irrigation system would be $31,000. The irrigation system would be ¼ mile long and would irrigate 80 acres. Suppose that the farmer wants to evaluate this investment over a five-year period of time. The farmer believes that if he sold the farm in five years, the irrigation system would add $31,000 to the sale price. The farmer anticipates that his marginal tax rate over the next six years will be 15%. The IRS will allow the farmer to depreciate the investment using straight line over 15 years.

A farmer is thinking about investing in a center pivot irrigation system to irrigate 100 acres of land in Fresno. With an irrigation system, operating expenses would increase by $175 per acre due to electricity, maintenance and additional labor. It is estimated that the irrigation will increase yields and thus operating receipts by $300 per acre. The cost for drilling a well would be $10,200 and the cost for the center pivot irrigation system would be $42,000. The irrigation system would be ¼ mile long and would irrigate 100 acres. Suppose that the farmer wants to evaluate this investment over a five-year period of time. The farmer believes that if he sold the farm in five years, the irrigation system would add $20,000 to the sale price. The farmer anticipates that his marginal tax rate over the next six years will be 20%. The IRS will allow the farmer to depreciate the investment using straight line over 15 years.

It is estimated that the irrigation will increase yields and thus operating receipts by $150 per acre. The cost for drilling a well would be $8,200 and the cost for the center pivot irrigation system would be $31,000. The irrigation system would be ¼ mile long and would irrigate 80 acres. Suppose that the farmer wants to evaluate this investment over a five-year period of time. The farmer believes that if he sold the farm in five years, the irrigation system would add $31,000 to the sale price. The farmer anticipates that his marginal tax rate over the next six years will be 15%. The IRS will allow the farmer to depreciate the investment using straight line over 15 years. Assume that the terminal value of this investment is $31,000 at the end of five years. The farmer requires a 10% return to capital (pretax).
