The Arkansas Division of ADM, a large agricultural products corporation, purchased a state-of-the-art ground-leveling system for rice field preparation 3 years ago for $120,000. When purchased, it had an expected service life of 10 years, an estimated salvage of $25,000 after 10 years, and AOC of $30,000. Current account book value is $80,000. The system is deteriorating rapidly; 3 more years of use and then salvaging it for $10,000 on the international used farm equipment network are now the expectations. The AOC is averaging $30,000. A substantially improved, laser-guided model is offered today for $100,000 with a trade-in of $70,000 for the current system. The price goes up next week to $110,000 with a trade-in of $70,000. The ADM division engineer estimates the laser-guided system to have a useful life of 10 years, a salvage of $20,000, and an AOC of $20,000. A $70,000 market value appraisal of the current system was made today. If no further analysis is made on the estimates, state the correct values to include if the replacement study is performed today.
