Assume that a company is choosing between two alternatives$$keep an existing machine or replace it with a new machine. The costs associated with the two alternatives are summarized as follows:

Existing Machine New Machine

Purchase cost $($new$)$ $ $15,000$ $ $22,000$

Remaining book value $ $6,000$

Overhaul needed now $ $5,000$

Annual cash operating costs $ $10,500$ $ $7,000$

Salvage value $($now$)$ $ $2,000$

Salvage value $($eight years from now$)$ $ $1,000$ $ $6,000$

If the company overhauls its existing machine, it will be usable for eight more years. If it buys the new machine, it will be used for eight years. Assuming a discount rate of $19\%,$ what is the net present value of the cash flows associated with keeping the existing machine?
