Flint Tooling Company is considering replacing a machine that has been used in its factory for 4 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 $108,500 Annual depreciation (straight-line) 10,850 Annual manufacturing costs, excluding depreciation 38,800 Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses 11,700 Annual revenue 95,100 Current estimated selling price of the machine 35,000 New Machine Cost of machine, 6-year life $136,200 Annual depreciation (straight-line) 22,700 Estimated annual manufacturing costs, exclusive of depreciation 19,100 Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses and revenue are not expected to be affected by purchase of the new machine. Required: Question Content Area 1. Prepare a differential analysis as of November 8 to determine whether to Continue with Old Machine (Alternative 1) or Replace Old Machine (Alternative 2). The analysis should indicate the differential profit that would result over the 6-year period if the new machine is acquired. If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". For those boxes in which you must enter subtracted or negative numbers use a minus sign.
