Bottoms Up Diaper Service is considering the purchase of a new industrial washer. It can purchase the washer for $7,800 and sell its old washer for $1,600. The new washer will last for 6 years and save $2,300 a year in expenses. The opportunity cost of capital is 17%, and the firms tax rate is 40%.
