. More Info rese ue To convert to Brother, two operators would have to be retrained. Required training and remodeling would cost $3,500. Norfolk State's three Xerox machines were purchased for $13,000 each, 3 years ago. Their expected life was 8 years. Their resale value now is $1,250 each and will be zero in 5 more years. The total cost of the new Brother equipment will be $70,000; it will have zero disposal value in 5 years. The three Xerox operators are paid $6 an hour each. They usually work a 40-hour week. Machine breakdowns occur monthly on each machine, resulting in repair costs of $125 per month and overtime of 4 hours, at time-and-one-half, per machine per month, to complete the normal monthly workload. Toner, supplies, and so on, cost $160 a month for each Xerox copier. The Brother system will require only two regular operators, on a regular work week of 40 hours each, to do the same work. Rates are $10 an hour, and no overtime is expected. Toner, supplies, and so on, will cost a total of $4,200 annually. Maintenance and repairs are fully serviced by Brother for $1,000 annually. (Assume a 52-week year.) Print Done Norfolk State University is considering replacing some Xerox copiers with faster copiers purchased from Brother. The administration is very concerned about the rising costs of operations during the last decade. (Click the icon to view the view information on the Xerox and Brother copiers.)
