Whispering Winds Fashions needs to replace a beltloop attacher that currently costs the company $48,000 in annual cash operating costs. This machine is of no use to another company, but it could be sold as scrap for $3,500. Managers have identified a potential replacement machine, Euromat’s Model HD-435.
