b. Assume that the equipment could be sold for $350,000 at the end of the projects life. Compute the after-tax proceeds from the sale of equipment in year 5.

c. Now assume that the equipment could be sold for $35,000 at the end of the projects life. Compute the after-tax proceeds from the sale of equipment in year 5.
