Please show work, thank you

"I'm not sure we should lay out $310,000 for that automated welding machine," said Jim Alder, president of the Superior Equipment Company. "That's a lot of money, and it would cost us another $50,400 per year just to maintain the thing. In addition, the manufacturer admits it would cost $49,000 more at the end of three years to replace worn-out parts." $86,000 for software and installation, and "I admit it's a lot of money," said Franci Rogers, the controller. "But you know the turnover problem we've had with the welding crew. This machine would replace six welders at a cost savings of $116,000 per year. And we would save another $7,700 per year in reduced material waste. When you figure that the automated welder would last for six years, I'm sure the return would be greater than our 13% required rate of return." "I'm still not convinced," countered Mr. Alder. "We can only get $18,000 scrap value out of our old welding equipment if we sell it now, and in six years the new machine will only be worth $32,000 for parts. But have your people work up the figures and well talk about them at the executive committee meeting tomorrow.
