Relevant data associated with the operations of the old machine and the new machine, neither of which has any estimated residual value, are as follows:




















































    Old Machine
    Cost of machine, 10-year life$106,700
    Annual depreciation (straight-line)10,670
    Annual manufacturing costs, excluding depreciation39,100
    Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses12,900
    Annual revenue94,300
    Current estimated selling price of the machine36,700

    New Machine

    Annual depreciation (straight-line)23,000
    Estimated annual manufacturing costs, exclusive of depreciation18,900

    Annual nonmanufacturing operating expenses and revenue are not expected to be affected by purchase of the new machine.

The analysis should indicate the total differential income that would result over the six-year period if the new machine is acquired. If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". Use a minus sign to indicate a loss.
