Management of Plascencia Corporation is considering whether to purchase a new model 370 machine costing $523,000 or a new model 220 machine costing $482,000 to replace a machine that was purchased 7 years ago for $518,000. The old machine was used to make product 143L until it broke down last week Unfortunately, the old machine cannot be repaired. Management has decided to buy the new model 220 machine. It has less capacity than the new model 370 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product 143L Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of simply dropping product 143L. If that were done, instead of investing $340,000 in the new machine, the money could be invested in a project that would return a total of $497,000. In making the decision to buy the model 220 machine rather than the model 370 machine, the sunk cost was: A. $518,000
B. $482,000
C. $523,000
D. $497000

Dahlia enterprises needs someone to supply it with 127,000 cartons of machine screws per year to support its manufacturing needs over the next five years, and you’ve decided to bid on the contract. it will cost you $940,000 to install the equipment necessary to start production; you’ll depreciate this cost straight-line to zero over the project’s life. you estimate that in five years, this equipment can be salvaged for $77,000. your fixed production costs will be $332,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $11.00 per carton. you also need an initial investment in net working capital of $82,000. if your tax rate is 30 percent and your required return is 11 percent on your investment, what bid price should you submit? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
