Question 2
Cast Iron Stove Company wants to buy a molding machine that can be integrated into its computerized manufacturing process. It has received three bids for the machine and related manufacturer's specifications. The bids range from $3,500,000 to $3,550,000. The estimated annual savings of the machines range from $260,000 to $270,000. The payback periods are almost identical and the net present values are all within $8,000 of each other. The president just doesn't know what to do about which vendor to choose since all of the selection criteria are so close together.
