Answer:

Alternative A should be accepted as it is giving favourable result of $30,600

Explanation:

Xinhong Company

ALTERNATIVE A: INCREASE OR (DECREASE) IN NET INCOME

Cost to buy new machine                                                   $123,000

Cash received to trade in old machine                             $48,000

Reduction in variable manufacturing costs = 4*($33500 - $22400) = $44,400

Total change in net income                                                $30,600

ALTERNATIVE B: INCREASE OR (DECREASE) IN NET INCOME

Cost to buy new machine                                                   $119,000

Cash received to trade in old machine                             $48,000

Reduction in variable manufacturing costs = 4*($33500 - $10300) = $92,800

Total change in net income                                                $21,800

Therefore, Alternative A should be accepted as it is giving favourable result of $30,600
