A machine with a book value of $82,500 has an estimated five-year life. A proposal is offered to sell the old machine for $44,500 and replace it with a new machine at a cost of $59,500. The new machine has a five-year life with no residual value. The new machine would reduce annual direct labor costs from $10,500 to $9,000.
