Q: There is a company called Walmart, and it deals with machining work that is conventional. A variety of machines are used within the company, and these machines are frequently restored and changed. George Bush is the manager of this factory, and he has given permission to acquire an automated machine from Machine Ltd. at a price of $2,000,000. Recently, the new automated machine was set up. It is believed that this new machine will last for 10 years and this new machine will incur operating costs of $700,000 (on a yearly basis). By the end of the 10 years, the machine will be useless. George Bush's salary is $75,000 and he also obtains ½ of 1% of the corporate net income as his yearly bonus. Brad thinks he will stay with Walmart for an additional 2 years. Afterwards, he believes that by moving to a different company he will obtain a hefty salary increase and a promotion.
Super Machine Ltd. (another company) is offering a new machine. This machine executes the same jobs as the new machine from Machine Ltd. George Bush has high reservations about this new growth.
