Kahn Company paid $240,000 to purchase a machine on January 1, Year 1. During Year 3, a technological breakthrough resulted in t

he development of a new machine that costs $300,000. The old machine costs $100,000 per year to operate, but the new machine could be operated for only $36,000 per year. The new machine, which will be available for delivery on January 1, year 3, has an expected useful life of four years. The old machine is more durable and is expected to have a remaining useful life of four years. The current market value of the old machine is $80,000.

Answer:

Yes, the machine should be replaced

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Particulars              old Machine            New machine

Purchase price                                       $300,000

Less:

Salvage value                                        -$80,000

Operating cost         $400,000              $144,000

                          ($100,000 × 4 )        ($36,000 × 4)

Total cost                 $400,000                $364,000

So, the financial advantage is

= $400,000 - $364,000

= $36,000

Since there is a financial advantage of $36,000 so the old machine should be replaced with the new machine

Use the following information to determine the break-even point in units (rounded to the nearest whole unit): Unit sales 58,000
Tema [17]

Answer:

29,394 units

Explanation:

The formula for break even point is given as Fixed cost / Contribution margin.

Where;

Contribution margin = Sales per unit - Variable cost per unit

Given that ;

Fixed cost = $194,000

Unit selling price = $14.90

Unit variable cost = $8.30

Therefore;

BEP(units) = $194,000 / $14.90 - $8.30

= $194,000 / $6.6

= 29,394 units
