A Malaysian firm has to choose between two new machines.

Machine A would cost $80,000 and is expected to have an economic life of four years. It should generate $50,000 of revenue each year, and incur costs of $22,000 a year.

Machine B will cost $100,000 and is expected to have an economic life of five years. It is anticipated that it will produce annual revenue of $51,000 and attract costs of

$22,000 a year.

If the firm requires a return of 10% on their investment and the company tax rate is 30%, which machine should be chosen?
