Answer - $14410.99
In current situation the company has a present value of expense of $24018.32 ( present value) and after replacement the company will be incurring only $9607.33 ( present value) so comapco should spend maximum 24018.32 - 9607.33 = 14410.99 to replace the new machine. Any amount above that would make the company incur more than what the company is incurring currently.
If the solution helped, please give it a thumbs up. Thank you.
