Micrоsоft Cоmpаny hаs а machine that affixes labels to bottles. The machine has a book value of $80,000 and a remaining useful life of 3 years. If the company continues to use the current machine, it would require $10,000 in additional repair costs. A new, more efficient machine is available at a cost of $300,000 that will have a 3-year useful life with no salvage value.
