Question $4(25$ pts$)$

A firm is considering replacing a machine that has been used to make a certain kind of packaging material. The new, improved machine will cost $$31,000$ installed and will have an estimated economic service life of $10$ years, with a salvage value of $$2,500.$ Operating costs are expected to be $$1,000$ per year throughout the service life of the machine. The old machine $($still in use$)$ had an original cost of $$25,000$ four years ago, and at the time it was purchased, its service life $($physical life$)$ was estimated to be seven years, with a salvage value of $$5,000.$ The old machine has a current market value of $$7,700.$ If the firm retains the old machine, its updated market values and operating costs for the next four years will be as follows:
