You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling machines.

The Techron I costs $$234,000,$ has a three$-$year life, and has pretax

operating costs of $$61,000$ per year. The Techron II costs $$410,000,$

has a five$-$year life, and has pretax operating costs of $$34,000$ per

year. For both milling machines, use straight$-$line depreciation to

zero over the project$$s life and assume a salvage value of $$38,000.$

If your tax rate is $35$ percent and your discount rate is $10$

percent, compute the EAC for both

machines.$($Your answers should be a

negative value and indicated by a minus sign. Do

not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to

$2$ decimal places $($e$.$g$.,32\mathrm{.}16).)$
