In the VanBuren machine replacement problem, the companys current policy is to keep a machine at least

Question:

In the VanBuren machine replacement problem, the company’s current policy is to keep a machine at least 4 quarters but no more than 12 quarters.

Suppose instead that the company imposes no upper limit on how long it will keep a machine; its only policy requirement is that a machine must be kept at least 4 quarters. Modify the spreadsheet model appropriately.

Is the new optimal solution the same as before?
