Replace Equipment

A machine with a book value of $245,500 has an estimated six-year life. A proposal is offered to sell the old machine for $215,200 and replace it with a new machine at a cost of $280,100. The new machine has a six-year life with no residual value. The new machine would reduce annual direct labor costs from $50,800 to $40,600.
