Abstract
Ms. Rogers, a marketing representative for Pressco, Inc., spares no effort to persuade its potential customers like Paperco to sign a binding contracts of purchasing new mechanical drying equipment. In view of the uncertainty about whether a rumored new tax legislation will come into effect or not, company like Paperco must examine the net present value of the old facility and new purchasing (with ITC earned or not) respectively in order to decide if it's worth investing. In this paper, net present value of new facility under both existing and rumored tax legislation are calculated, as well as the expected cost savings for Paperco. On this basis, we are trying to make some suggestions on the standpoint of Pressco and its counterparts with the help of sensitivity analysis method, and finally our takeaways.
