On 1-March-2010, Alpha Pharmaceuticals Ltd. purchased 10 machines for manufacturing tablets. The price of each machine is $150,000. The transportation and installation cost is 1% and 2.5% of the price respectively for each machine. The company also had to bear the cost of test runs for each machine, which were $1,500. The approximate repair and maintenance expense for each machine is $4,000 per year. The company paid 25% of price in cash and signed a 6 month, Notes Payable (N/P) for the remaining balance. The N/P bears interest expense for the company at 5% per annum. Each machine is useful for 5 years and experts estimate that each machine can be sold at the end of its useful life for 10% of its purchase price. During its useful life, the machine will produce 7,500,000 tablets. Following table shows number of tablets produced in each year.
