Bach Company paid $120,000 to purchase a machine on January 1, 2012. During 2014, a technological breakthrough resulted in the d

evelopment of a new machine that costs $150,000. The old machine costs $50,000 per year to operate, but the new machine could be operated for only $18,000 per year. The new machine, which will be available for delivery on January 1, 2015, 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 $40,000. The expected salvage value of both machines is zero.
Required:
a.
Calculate the total avoidable costs in keeping the old machine and buy a new machine.



b. Should the machine be replaced?
Yes
No

Answer:

Explanation:

a) calculate the total avoidable cost in keeping the old machine and buy a new machine:

 PARTICULARS                                  KEEP OLD              BUY NEW

                                                             AMOUNT($)            AMOUNT($)

Opportuinty cost of buying                40,000

the old machine

Purchase price                                                                         150,000

Operating expenses

(50,000 × 4 years)                               200,000

Operating expenses

18,000 × 4 years)                                                                        72,000

TOTAL AVOIDABLE COST                  240,000                        222,000

b)Decision:

Since the cost of operating the new machine is lower,it should be replaced

a sample of ammonia contains 9g hydrogen and 42g nitrogen. another sample contains 5g hydrogen .calculate the amount of nitrogen
balandron [24]
9 g of hydrogen - 42 g of nitrogen
5 g of hydrogen - x g of nitrogen

9x=42 \cdot 5 \\
9x=210 \\
x \approx 23.33

The mass of nitrogen in the second sample is 23.33 g.

Which compound is an Arrhenius base?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
I was hoping that some choices would be given to choose from. As there are no choices given, so i am answering the question based on my knowledge and hope that it comes to your help. Calcium hydroxide is a good example of Arrhenius base. An Arrhenius base is actually a substance that releases a hydroxyl ion in water.
