At the present time, the remaining service life of the equipment to be 3 years.
A proposal has been made to replace the present piece of property by one more advanced design. The proposed equipment would cost $ 40,000, and the operating costs would be $ 15,000 per year.

Should the present equipment be replaced? (straight line depreciation is applicable)
