You are the manager of a 24-hour copy shop that is closed on Sundays. You lease a building for $2,000 per month and hire three employees who each work eight-hour shifts at a wage of $10.00 per hour (each works a total of 40 hours per week). The markets for labor and office space are tight in your area. To acquire the lease and hire workers, you signed contracts requiring you to give 12 months advance notice before abandoning your lease or laying off workers (if you fail to comply, the contracts force you to fully compensate your landlord and workers for the income they otherwise would have earned over the 12-month period). Paper costs you $.02 per sheet. You currently sell 1,000,000 color copies per year at a price of $.10 per copy and 2,000,000 black-and-white copies per year at a price of $.05 per copy. Because of your high volume, each of your two copiers has a useful life of only one year. You just received a call from an employee who informs you that your color copier just broke down. The good news is that your black-and-white copier is brand-new; the bad news is that a new color copier will cost $50,000. Assume that customers who want color copies are unwilling to substitute black-and-white copies.
Are there any costs that are irrelevant to your decision of whether or not to purchase the new color copier?
Should you purchase a new color copier? Justify your answer.
