in case of old machine:
the production of antiquated machine for 1 year: 260 x 40 = 10400
cost of production: 10400 x $6.10 = $63440
profit of produced goods per year: 10400 x ($9.30 - $6.10) = $33280
total profit in 2 years: $33280 x 2 = $66560
In case the machine is replaced
the production of machine for 1 year = 260 x 80 = 20800
cost of production 20800 x $6.10 = $126880
profit of produced goods per year 20800 x ($9.30 - $6.10) = $66560
total profit in 2 years: $133120
in addition, cost of the machine is: $69660
hence net profit is: $133120 - $69660 = $63460
CONCLUSION:
Replacing the machine will result in net loss of $66560 - $63460 = $3100
therefore, Waterways should keep the old machine.

Waterways has discovered that a small fitting it now manufactures at a cost of $1.00 per unit could be bought elsewhere for $0.82 per unit. Waterways has fixed costs of $0.20 per unit that cannot be eliminated by buying this unit. Waterways needs 456,000 of these units each year. If Waterways decides to buy rather than produce the small fitting, it can devote the machinery and labor to making a timing unit it now buys from another company. Waterways uses...
