The Blue Sky Ski Resort plans to install a new chair lift. Construction is estimated to require an immediate outlay of $220 000. The life of the lift is estimated to be 15 years, with a salvage value of $80 000. Cost of clearing and grooming the new area is expected to be $30000 for each of the first three years of operation. Net cash inflows from the lift are expected to be $40 000 for each of the first 5 years and $70 000 for each of the following 10 years.
