The Fine Clothing Factory wants to replace an old machine with a new one. The old machine can be sold to a small factory for R10 000. The new machine would increase annual revenue by R150 000 and annual operating expenses by R60 000. The new machine would cost R360 000. The estimated useful life of the machine is 12 years with zero salvage value. Using Average rate of return (ARR), Should Fine Clothing Factory purchase the machine if management desired rate of return of 15% on all capital investments? Show all the calculations and motivate your answer.
In the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVS) that will shape the future of UAV applications, an online shopping company wants to purchase a group of UAVS.
