Management of Childers Corporation is considering whether to purchase a new model 370 machine costing $463,000 or a new model 240 machine costing $399,000 to replace a machine that was purchased 5 years ago for $439,000. The old machine was used to make product M25A until it broke down last week. Unfortunately, the old machine cannot be repaired. Management has decided to buy the new model 240 machine. It has less capacity than the new model 370 machine, but its capacity is sufficient to continue making product M25A. Management also considered, but rejected, the alternative of simply dropping product M25A. If that were done, instead of investing $399,000 in the new machine, the money could be invested in a project that would return a total of $443,000. In making the decision to buy the model 240 machine rather than the model 370 machine, the differential cost was: In making the decision to buy the model 240 machine rather than the model 370 machine, the differential cost was:

a. $24,000
b. $64,000
c. $4,000

Alandowner and his neighbor purchased adjoining undeveloped lots. after both built homes on their respective lots, the landowner suggested to the neighbor that a common driveway be built where the two lots joined. the neighbor agreed. the landowner and the neighbor split the cost of constructing the driveway and entered into a written agreement to equally share the costs of its upkeep and maintenance. the agreement was recorded in the county recorder's office. two years later, the neighbor built a new driveway located entirely on his lot. the common driveway, which the landowner continued to use but which the neighbor no longer used, began to deteriorate. the landowner asked the neighbor for money to maintain the common driveway, but the neighbor refused to contribute. three years later, the neighbor conveyed his lot to a friend. the friend entered into possession and used only the driveway built by the neighbor. by this time, the common driveway had deteriorated badly and contained numerous potholes. the landowner asked the friend to pay half of what it would take to repair the common driveway. the friend refused. the landowner repaired the driveway and sued the friend for 50% of the cost of repairs. will the landowner prevail?
