Starling Co. is considering disposing of a machine with a book value of $21,500 and estimated remaining life of five years. The old machine can be sold for $5,300. A new high-speed machine can be purchased at a cost of 69,300. It will have a useful life of five years and no residual value. It is estimated that the annual variable manufacturing costs will be reduced from $22,600 to $19,500 if the new machine is purchased. The differential effect on income for the new machine for the entire five years is
a.increase of $63,050
b.decrease of $48,500
c.increase of $48,500
d.decrease of $63,050
Differential effect on income :
Old machine | New machine | |
Salvage value | -5300 | |
Purchase cost | 69300 | |
Variable manufacturing cost | 22600*5 = 113000 | 19500*5 = 97500 |
Total relevant cost | 113000 | 161500 |
Operating income decrease by = 113000-161500 = -48500
So answer is b) Decrease by $48500
