Cullumber 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, Cullumber Roofing spent $73,800 refurbishing the lift. It has just determined that another $41,000 of repair work is required. Alternatively, it has found a newer used lift that is for sale for $173,500. 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 $104,000 to $79,400 each year. Cullumber Roofing could also rent out the new lift for about $10,000 per year. The old lift is not suitable for rental. The old lift could currently be sold for $25,500 if the new lift is purchased. The new lift and old lift are estimated to have salvage values of zero if used for another 5 years.
