Jordan and Taylor want to purchase a new 60 quart floor mixer for $12,000. This machine would have a 5 year life with a salvage value of $2,000. The new machine would decrease operating costs by $1,000 each year of its economic life. The straight-line depreciation method would be used for the new machine. The cost of capital is 6%.
