A cash crop specialist requires more significant harvesting capacity due to the purchase of an additional 900 acres of farmland. The parameter values of the three harvesters under consideration are provided below. Parameters 1. Initial Cost ($) Alpha 300,000 Gamma 390,000 205,000 at EOY1 increasing annually thereafter by $500 235,000 annually from EOY1 to EOY5 2. Revenues ($) Beta 350,000 200,000 at EOY1 increasing by $500 annually thereafter by $500 until EOY5; 206,000 at EOY6 increasing annually thereafter by 1% 113,000 at EOY1 increasing annually thereafter by 4% 3. Operating costs ($) 110,000 at EOY1 increasing annually thereafter by 2% 115,000 at EOY1 increasing annually thereafter by 2% 10,000 -10,000 0 4. End-of-life salvage value ($) 5. Useful life (years) 5 10 5 All parameter values are fictitious. EOY = End-of-year Industry standard for backhoes = 4 years MARR = 10% .
