Appendix Four (Equipment Replacement Decision)Objective: The proposed manufacturing plant has a food packaging equipment. The analysis would provide Jacob with decision support as to use that equipment or procure a new one. Scenario:The current equipment was purchased eight years ago for $ 750,000 and has eight useful years remaining. The new machine will cost $ 380,000 and will have the same useful life remaining as the old machine and will have zero disposal value. Currently the annual operating cost is $ 110,000 and will reduce by 50% if the new equipment is purchased. If the new equipment is procured, it will need to be shut down once a year for maintenance purposes. Opportunity cost of the shut down period is as follows:• $ 6,000 in each of the years 1-3• $ 8,000 in each of the years 4 and 5• $ 10,000 in each of the years 6 and 7The old equipment will have limited use and can only fetch $ 120,000 when disposed off at this time.Methodology:The group would calculate the net…

Replace Equipment A machine with a book value of $251,700 has an estimated six-year life. A proposal is offered to sell the old machine for $214,200 and replace it with a new machine at a cost of $281,500. The new machine has a six-year life with no residual value. The new machine would reduce annual direct labor costs from $50,400 to $40,300. a. Prepare a differential analysis dated April 11 on whether to continue with the old machine (Alternative 1) or replace the old machine (Alternative 2). If an amount is zero, enter "0". If required, use a minus sign to indicate a loss.

22. Glenn Medical Center has seen a growth in patient volume since its primary competitor decided to relocate to a different area of the city. To accommodate this growth, a consul- tant has advised Glenn Medical to invest in a positron-emission tomography (PET) scanner. The cost to implement the unit would be $4,000,000. The useful life of this equip- ment is typically about six years, and it will be depreciated over a six-year life to a $400,000 salvage value. Additional patient volume will yield $3,000,000 in new revenues the first year. These first-year total revenues will increase by $600,000 each year thereafter, but the unit is expensive to operate. Additional staff and variable costs, excluding depreciation expense, will come to $2,200,000 the first year, but these expenses are expected to rise by $400,000 each year thereafter. Over the life of the machine, net working capital will increase by $18,000 per year for six years. a. Assuming that Glenn Medical Center is a…
