The management of Mashiah Corporation is considering the purchase of a machine that
would cost $290,000, would last for 6 years, and would have no salvage value. The
machine would reduce labor and other costs by $102,000 per year. The company requires
a minimum pretax return of 13% on all investment projects.
The present value of the annual cost savings of $102,000 is closest to:
82.
