Fishnet is analyzing two machines to determine which one it should purchase. Whichever machine is purchased will be replaced at the end of its useful life. The company requires a 13 percent rate of return and uses straight-line depreciation to a zero book value over the life of the machine. Machine A has a cost of $405,000, annual operating costs of $25,000, and a 3-year life. Machine B costs $313,000, has annual operating costs of $28,000, and a 2-year life. The firm currently pays no taxes. Which machine should be purchased and why?
