A manager must decide which type of machine to buy, A, B, or C. Machine costs (per individual machine) are as follows: Machine Cost
A $80,000
B $70,000
C $40,000

Product forecasts and processing times on the machines are as follows:

PROCCESSING TIME PER UNIT (minutes)
Product Annual Demand A B C
1 24,000 1 4 6
2 8,000 1 3 5
3 30,000 6 4 3
4 18,000 6 5 1

Required:
a. Assume that only purchasing costs are being considered. Compute the total processing time required for each machine type to meet demand, how many of each machine type would be needed, and the resulting total purchasing cost for each machine type. The machines will operate 10 hours a day, 240 days a year.
b. Compute total purchasing costs using these rounded machine quantities. Enter the resulting total purchasing cost as a whole number.)

You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines. the techron i costs $285,000, has a three-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $78,000 per year. the techron ii costs $495,000, has a five-year life, and has pretax operating costs of $45,000 per year. for both milling machines, use straight-line depreciation to zero over the project’s life and assume a salvage value of $55,000. if your tax rate is 24 percent and your discount rate is 11 percent, compute the eac for both machines.
