Answer:

The old machine should be replaced.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the the analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced.

From the attached excel file, the following calculation are made:

Variable Manufacturing cost of Retain = Initial Variable Manufacturing cost * remaining useful life of old machine = $592,600 * 5 = $2,963,000

Variable Manufacturing cost of Replace = New Variable Manufacturing cost * Remaining useful life of new machine = $505,500 * 5 = $2,527,500

From the attached excel, it can be observed that the total cost of Retain is $32,200 higher than the total cost of Replace. This therefore implies that the old machine should be replaced.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

------- JULY AUGUST. SEPTEMBER

Sales 210,000. 300,000 270,000

Ending. 45,000. 40,500. 27,000

total

required. 255,000. 340,500. 297,000

Beginning (31,500) (45,000) (40,500)

purchase 223,500. 295,500. 256,500

Explanation:

the ending would be next month sales times 15%

July ending

August sales x 15%

300,000 x 15% = 45,000

August Ending

September sales x 15%

270,000 x 15% = 40,500

September Ending

October sales x 15%

180,000 x 15% = 27,000

we will add the sales and the desired ending to get the total required for each month

last step we subtract the beginning inventory for each month, as those units are already there and don't need to purchased.

the ending of one month will be the beginning of the next month.

July ending is August beginning

August ending is September beginning
