Exercise 1-16 (Algo) Cost Classifications for Decision Making [LO1-5] Warner Corporation purchased a machine 7 years ago for $350,000 when it launched product P50. Unfortunately, this machine has broken down and cannot be repaired. The machine could be replaced by a new model 300 machine costing $342,450 or by a new model 200 machine costing $290,800.
