Bruno's is analyzing two machines to determine which one it should purchase. The company requires a rate of return of 14.6 percent and uses straight-line depreciation to a zero book value over a machine's life. Ignore taxes.

Whichever machine is purchased will be replaced indefinitely at the end of its useful life. Which machine should Bruno's purchase and why? Indifferent; the machines produce the same saving. Machine A; because it will save the company about $13,406 a year Machine B; because it will save the company about $16,510 a year Machine A: because it will save the company about $12,436 a year Machine B: because it will save the company about $11,609 a year
