Q3. You have purchased a machine costing $40 000. The machine will be used for two years, and at the end of this time, its salvage value is expected to be $20 000. The machine will be used 6 000 hours during the first year and 8 000 hours during the second year. The expected annual net savings will be $45 000 during the first year and $52 000 during the second year. If your interest rate is 12%, what would be the equivalent net savings per machine hour? (Hint: Calculate Capital recovery cost and then net annual saving and finally equivalent net savings per machine hour.)
