Costs that management should consider would include costs of retraining employees; costs of acquiring new ancillary equipment; write-offs of undepreciated investments in the old technology; capital requirements and research and development costs of the changeover; and costs of modifying interrelated stages of production or related aspects of the business.
All options should be consider.
You need to consider the cost of retraining the employees, cost of research & development, cost of bringing in any additional staff and cost of decommissioning, if the old plant need it to be.
