You are evaluating two different silicon wafer milling
machines. The Techron I costs $219,000, has a three-year life, and
has pretax operating costs of $56,000 per year. The Techron II
costs $385,000, has a five-year life, and has pretax operating
costs of $29,000 per year. For both milling machines, use
straight-line depreciation to zero over the project’s life and
assume a salvage value of $33,000. If your tax rate is 22 percent
and your discount rate is 8 percent, compute the EAC for both
machines.
