Bilboa Freightlines, S.A. of Panama has a small truck that it uses for local deliveries. The truck is in bad repair and must be either overhauled or replaced with a new truck. The company has assembled the following information (Panama uses the U.S. dollar as its currency): Present Truck New Truck Purchase cost new $ 30,000 $ 40,000 Remaining book value 15,000 - Overhaul needed now 5,000 - Annual cash operating costs 6,000 5,000 Salvage value now 10,000 - Salvage value eight years from now 1,200 4,200 If the company keeps and overhauls its present delivery truck, then the truck will be usable for eight more years. If a new truck is purchased, it will be used for eight years, after which it will be traded in on another truck. The new truck would be diesel-fuelled, resulting in a substantial reduction in annual operating costs, as shown above. The company computes depreciation on a straight-line basis.
