This used machine still has 5 years left of service. From now on, the operating and Maintenance costs are $2469 for the first year and expected to increase by $1044 thereafter. New Machine: machine costs $13823 and is expected to have a scrap value of $8546 whenever it is retired. Operating and Maintenance costs are $1777 for the first year and expected to increase by $1122 thereafter. The service life of this machine is 4 years.
