Gruman Company purchased a machine for $198,000 on January 2, 2016. It made the following estimates:

Service Life	5 years or 10,000 hours
Production	180,000 units
Residual value	$18,000

In 2016, Gruman uses the machine for 1,700 hours and produces 45,000 units. In 2017, Gruman uses the machine for 1,400 hours and produces 30,000 units. If required, round your final answers to the nearest dollar.
