Unequal Lives Filkins Fabric Company is considering the replacement of its old, fully depreciated knitting machine. Two new models are available: Machine 190-3, which has a cost of $180,000, a 3-year expected life, and after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation) of $94,000 per year; and Machine 360-6, which has a cost of $380,000, a 6-year life, and after-tax cash flows of $108,000 per year. Knitting machine prices are not expected to rise, because inflation will be offset by cheaper components (microprocessors) used in the machines.
