Problem 14-55 (Algo) Evaluate Trade-Offs in Performance Measurement and Decisions (LO 14-3) Leidich Corporation manufactures hospital equipment. The Measurement Division (MD) manufoctures testing and measurement equipment including a special cardiovoscular instrument. MD started the year with $17.25 million in other assets. At the beginning of the current year. MD invested $18.5 million in automated equipment for instrument assembly. The division's expected income A sales repregentative from South Street Manufacturing (SSM) approoched the manager of MD in lote November. SSM is willing to sell for $9.4 million a new assembly machine that offers significant improvements over the automated equipment MD acquired at the beginning of the yeor. The new equipment would expand division output by 12 percent while reducing cash fixed costs by $850,400. it would be depreciated for accounting purposes over a four-year life. Depreciation would be net of the $1,150,000 salvage value of the new machine. The new equlpment meets Leidich's cost of capital criterion. If MD purchases the new machine, it must be installed prior to the end of the year. For proctical purposes, though. MD can ignore depreciation on the new machine because it will not go into operation until the start of the next year MD will have to dispose of the old machine because the new machine would be installed in the same area. The old machine has no salvage value Leldich has a performance evaluation and bonus plan based on ROI. The return includes any losses on disposal of equipment. Investment is computed based on the end-of-year balance of assets. net book value. Ignore taxes. The manager is still assessing the problem of whether to acquire SSM's assembly machine. SSM tells the manager that the new machine could be acquired next year, but it will cost 20 percent more. The salvage volue would still be $1,150,000, Other costs or revenue estimates would be apportioned on a month-by-month basis for the time each machine (either the current mochine or the machine the manager is considering) is in use. Fractions of months may be ignored. Ignore taxes. Assume that the Leidich Corporation performance measurement and bonus plans are bosed on residual income instead of ROl. The company uses a cost of capital of 10 percent in computing residual income. Required: Calculate the residual income for the coming year assuming that the new equipment is bought at the beginning of the year. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in thousands of dollars not in millions of dollars. Round your final answer to nearest whole dollar amount
