Tax Considerations in Equipment Replacement Decisions.
Abstract
Recent changes in the tax laws have not generally been included in capital-budgeting models. Consequently, this article attempts to bring together the important tax considerations that should be included in capital investment decisions. The tax effects related to salvage values, investment credits, depreciation, additional first-year depreciation deductions, recapture provisions, trade-ins, and operating costs are analyzed and summarized algebraically in an equipment-replacement model. An appendix is included to portray the application of the tax considerations to an actual equipment-replacement problem.
