Crisoc is considering whether to repair or replace its manufacturing equipment. It is now in need of repairs that will cost $32,000. It has three years left of its useful life. Crisoc must determine whether to go ahead with the repairs, or to purchase a new machine to replace the old one. A new, more efficient machine costs $265,000 and will have an 3-year useful life, after which it will have no salvage value. The new machine would reduce variable manufacturing costs from $189,000 to $134,000 annually. As well, the old machinery can be sold for $72,000.

Do not enter dollar signs or commas in the input boxes. Use the negative sign for values that must be subtracted. Indicate repair or replace using the drop-down list.
