1. Sloan Corporation is considering new equipment. The equipment can be purchased from an overseas supplier for $3,180. The freight and installation costs for the equipment are $660. If purchased, annual repairs and maintenance are estimated to be $430 per year over the four-year useful life of the equipment. Alternatively, Sloan can lease the equipment from a domestic supplier for $1,540 per year for four years, with no additional costs.

Prepare a differential analysis dated December 3, to determine whether Sloan should lease (Alternative 1) or purchase (Alternative 2) the machine. (Hint: This is a "lease or buy" decision, which must be analyzed from the perspective of the machine user, as opposed to the machine owner.) If an amount is zero, enter "0". Use a minus sign to indicate a loss.
