A resort would like to ensure that it has vehicles to transport guests who have difficulty walking around its facilities. It is trying to decide between two different vehicles: Model A or Model B$.$ These options are mutually exclusive. The cash flow profiles for each of these alternatives are given below:

$\backslash$table$[[,$Model A$,$Model B$],[$Initial Investment, $$,8,600,20,000],[$Annual Revenues, $$,3,500,12,000],[$Annual Costs, $$,800,6,500],[$Salvage Value, $$,2,300,9,700]]$

Assume a planning horizon of $5$ years and a MARR of $9\%.$ Compute the PW of each alternative, and determine which vehicle the resort should purchase.

Carry all interim calculations to $5$ decimal places and then round your final answers to two decimal places. The tolerance is $+-10.$

Which alternative would your company prefer?
