Differential Analysis for Machine Replacement Proposal Flint Tooling Company is considering replacing a machine that has been used in its factory for four years. Relevant data associated with the operations of the old machine and the new machine, neither of which has any estimated residual value, are as follows:

Old Machine
Cost of machine, 10-year life	$106,900
Annual depreciation (straight-line)	10,690
Annual manufacturing costs, excluding depreciation	38,700
Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses	12,300
Annual revenue	94,200
Current estimated selling price of the machine	35,400
New Machine
Cost of machine, six-year life	$137,400
Annual depreciation (straight-line)	22,900
Estimated annual manufacturing costs, exclusive of depreciation	17,200

Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses and revenue are not expected to be affected by purchase of the new machine.

Required:

1. Prepare a differential analysis as of February 28, 2014, comparing operations using the present machine (Alternative 1) with operations using the new machine (Alternative 2). The analysis should indicate the total differential income that would result over the six-year period if the new machine is acquired. If an amount is zero, enter zero "0".

Differential Analysis
Continue with Old Machine (Alt. 1) or Replace Old Machine (Alt. 2)
February 28, 2014
		Continue with Old Machine (Alternative 1)		Replace Old Machine (Alternative 2)		Differential Effect on Income (Alternative 2)
Revenues
