Stanton Inc. is considering the purchase of a new machine which will reduce manufacturing costs by $5,000 annually and increase sales by $6,000 annually. Stanton will use the MACRS method to depreciate the machine, and it expects to sell the machine at the end of its 5-year operating life for $10,000 before taxes.
