Differential Analysis for Machine Replacement Proposal

Flint Tooling Company is considering replacing a machine that has been used in its factory for four years. Relevant data associated with the operations of the old machine and the new machine, neither of which has any estimated residual value, are as follows:

Old Machine
Cost of machine, 10-year life	$107,800
Annual depreciation (straight-line)	10,780
Annual manufacturing costs, excluding depreciation	39,600
Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses	12,700
Annual revenue	96,000
Current estimated selling price of the machine	35,000
New Machine
Cost of machine, six-year life	$136,800
Annual depreciation (straight-line)	22,800
Estimated annual manufacturing costs, exclusive of depreciation	18,800

Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses and revenue are not expected to be affected by purchase of the new machine.

Required:

1. Prepare a differential analysis as of November 8 comparing operations using the present machine (Alternative 1) with operations using the new machine (Alternative 2). The analysis should indicate the total differential income that would result over the six-year period if the new machine is acquired. If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". Use a minus sign to indicate a loss.
