Crane Roofing is faced with a decision. The company relies very heavily on the use of its $60-$foot extension lift for work on large homes and commercial properties. Last year, Crane Roofing spent $$79,800$ refurbishing the lift. It has just determined that another $$49,000$ of repair work is required. Alternatively, it has found a newer used lift that is for sale for $$207,500.$ The company estimates that both lifts would have useful lives of $5$ years. The new lift is more efficient and thus would reduce operating expenses from $$114,000$ to $$87,400$ each year. Crane Roofing could also rent out the new lift for about $$12,000$ per year. The old lift is not suitable for rental. The old lift could currently be sold for $$30,500$ if the new lift is purchased. The new lift and old lift are estimated to have salvage values of zero if used for another $6$ years.
