Transcribed Image Text:TopCap Co. is evaluating the purchase of another sewing machine that will be used to manufacture sport caps. The invoice price of the
machine is $122,000. In addition, delivery and installation costs will total $5,500. The machine has the capacity to produce 12,000
dozen caps per year. Sales are forecast to increase gradually, and production volumes for each of the five years of the machine's life
are expected to be as follows: Use Table 6-4. (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round the PV factors to 4
decimals.)

8,500 dozen
11,300 dozen
12,000 dozen

The caps have a contribution margin of $10.00 per dozen. Fixed costs associated with the additional production (other than
depreciation expense) will be negligible. Salvage value and the investment in working capital should be ignored. TopCap Co.'s cost of
capital for this capacity expansion has been set at 10%.
Required:
