Net present valueThe Sweetwater Candy Company would like to buy a new machine for $$160,000$ that automatically "dips" chocolates. The

manufacturer estimates the machine would be usable for five years but would require replacement of several key parts costing $$9,700$

at the end of the third year. After five years, the machine could be sold for $$3,500.$

The company estimates the cost to operate the machine will be $$7,700$ per year. The present labor$-$intensive method of dipping

chocolates costs $$37,000$ per year. In addition to reducing costs, the new machine will increase production by $4,000$ boxes of

chocolates per year. The company realizes a contribution margin of $$1\mathrm{.}20$ per box. A $12\%$ rate of return is required on all investments.
