Warner Corporation purchased a machine seven years ago for $315,000 when it launched product P50. Unfortunately, this machine has broken down and cannot be repaired. The machine could be replaced by a new model 300 machine costing $303,000 or by a new model 200 machine costing $273,000. Management has decided to buy the model 200 machine. It has less capacity than the model 300 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product P50. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of dropping product P50 and not replacing the old machine. If that were done, the $273,000 invested in the new machine could instead have been invested in a project that would have returned a total of $373,000. Required: 1. What is the total differential cost regarding the decision to buy the model 200 machine rather than the model 300 machine? 2. What is the total sunk cost regarding the decision to buy the model 200 machine rather than the model 300 machine? 3. What is the total opportunity cost regarding the decision to invest in the model 200 machine? 1. Differential cost $ 2. Sunk cost $ 30,000 315,000 3. Opportunity cost

The Aubey Coffee Company is evaluating the within-plant distribution system for its new roasting, grinding, and packing plant. The two alternatives are (1) a conveyor system with a high initial cost but low annual operating costs and (2) several forklift trucks, which cost less but have considerably higher operating costs. The decision to construct the plant has already been made, and the choice here will have no effect on the overall revenues of the project. The cost of capital for the plant is 8%, and the projects’ expected net costs are listed in the following table: What is the IRR of each alternative? What is the present value of the costs of each alternative? Which method should be chosen?

"That old equipment for producing oil drums is worn out,” said Jillian Rafuse, president of Hondrich Company. "We need to make a decision quickly." The company is trying to decide whether it should rent new equipment and continue to make its oil drums internally or whether it should discontinue production and purchase them from an outside supplier. The alternatives follow: Alternative 1: Rent new equipment for producing the oil drums for $100,000 per year. Alternative 2: Purchase oil drums from an outside supplier for $17.40 each. Hondrich Company's costs per unit of producing the oil drums internally (with the old equipment) are given below. These costs are based on a current activity level of 40,000 units per year: Direct materials Direct labour Variable overhead Fixed overhead ($1.25 supervision, $1.80 depreciation, and $4.00 general company overhead) Total cost per unit $ 6.00 8.00 3.20 7.05 $24.25 The new equipment would be more efficient and, according to the manufacturer, would…
