A company's management is considering to buying a new machine. A new machine will cost $25,000. Annual operating and maintenance costs will be $8,000 in the first year, increasing by $400 each year. Assume the machine depreciates by $4,000 per year according to straight-line depreciation. Assume the machine can be re-sold at its book value at any time.

a) Owning the proposed new machine for how many years will result in the minimum EAC if the interest rate is 8%? (show steps)

b) If the old machine reached its minimum EAC several years ago and its operating and maintenance cost this year are expected to be $9,000, should the arena’s management buy the new machine? Assume the operating and maintenance costs of the old machine will increase, and assume it has a salvage value of zero.
