Sweet Wave Bakery has a machine that is continuing to break down and requires constant maintenance. The operations manager is estimating that this machine has only 2 more years of life. The machine produces an average of 50 units per day at a cost of $6.50 per unit. The bakery is considering replacing this machine with a similar machine. The new machine would cost $55,000 with a 2 year life but could produce twice the production of the existing machine. The units sell for $8.50. Sweet Wave operates the line with this machine 260 days each year. The sales are equal to production on this line.
