In particular, management believes that the depreciation charges are not high enough in relation to the factory machines because new technology applied in that area is rapidly making the machines obsolete. Management’s concern is that the machines will have to be replaced in the near future and, with the low depreciation charges, the funds will not be sufficient to pay for the replacement machines. Required Discuss management’s position.
