(2 point) Suppose that a new machine tool having a useful life of only one year costs $80,000 to a company. Suppose, also, that the net additional revenue resulting from buying this tool is expected to be $96,000. ( Assuming there are no other costs, what is the expected rate of return on this tool? Show your calculations. Hint, first calculate the profit that a company would make from this machine. If the interest rate is 15%, would it be beneficial for a company to barrow $80,000 to buy that machine? Why or why not?
