A machine purchased 3 years ago for $140,000 is now too slow to satisfy the demand of the customers. It can be upgraded now for $81,000 or sold to a smaller company internationally for $41,000. The upgraded machine will have an annual operating cost of $82,000 per year and a $33,000 salvage value in 3 years. If upgraded, the presently owned machine will be retained for only 3 more years, then replaced with a machine to be used in the manufacture of several other product lines. The replacement machine, which will serve the company now and for a maximum of 8 years, costs $224,000. Its salvage value will be $49,000 for years 1 through 5; $20,000 after 6 years; and $10,000 thereafter. It will have an estimated operating cost of $45,000 per year. Perform an economic analysis at 8% per year using a specified 3-year planning horizon.
a) Determine if the current machine should be replaced now or 3 years from now
b) Once decided, determine the equivalent AW for the next three years.

2. In a previous test baseballs were dropped 24 ft. onto a concrete surface, and they bounced an average of 984 in. In a test of a sample of 40 new balls, the bounce heights had a mean of 92.67 in. with a standard deviation of 1.79 in. Use a 0.05 significance level to determine whether there is significant evidence to support the claim that the new balls have bounce heights with a mean different from 92.84.

The entire $225,000 is reported as taxable income in 2018, but $150,000 of the $225,000 is reported as unearned revenue in 2018 for financial reporting purposes. The remaining amount of unearned revenue is to be recognized equally in 2019 and 2020. | |
| 4. | The tax rate is 40% in 2017 and all subsequent periods. (Hint: To find taxable income in 2017 and 2018, the related income taxes payable amounts will have to be “grossed up.”) | |
| 5. |
No temporary differences existed at the end of 2016. Elbert expects to report taxable income in each of the next 5 years. |
