Relate Economic Analysis to Human and Cultural Diversity

Your company wants to build a new manufacturing facility which will cost $2 million for plant building and $800,000 for machinery. It will have a net annual cash flow of $750,000 for the next 10 years.

You could build it in your US location where your total incremental tax rate would be 45%. However you are also considering building it in Ireland.

Calculate the after tax present worth of adding a new manufacturing facility in each of the two countries and determine where it would be better to place the investment. Assume that the interest rate is 8% per year. You will need to research tax methods and depreciation rules in Ireland, and compare with those of the US. Use these results to recommend where to make the investment.
