Prepare a display to show the recovery of investment and return on investment for Jefferson County's landfill project.
Data From Exercise 16-24:-
Jefferson County's Board of Representatives is considering the purchase of a site for a new sanitary landfill.
The purchase price for the site is \($234,000\) and preparatory work will cost \($88,080\). The landfill would be usable for 10 years. The board hired a consultant, who estimated that the new landfill would cost the county \($48,000\) per year less to operate than the county's current landfill. The current landfill also will last 10 more years. For a landfill project, Jefferson County can borrow money from the federal government at a subsidized rate. The county's hurdle rate is only 6 percent for this project.
