You are trying to pick the least-expensive car for your new delivery service. You have two choices: the Scion xA, which will cost $16,500 to purchase and which will have OCF of $1,700 annually throughout the vehicles expected life of three years as a delivery vehicle; and the Toyota Prius, which will cost $24,000 to purchase and which will have OCF of $900 annually throughout that vehicles expected 4-year life.

You intend to replace whichever type of car you choose with the same thing when its life runs out, again and again out into the foreseeable future.

Problem 12-3 EAC Approach (LG12-7) You are trying to pick the least-expensive car for your new delivery service.
