A chemical company is considering two types of incinerators to burn solid waste generated by a chemical operation. Both incinerators have a burning capacity of 20 tons per day. The data in the table below have been compiled for comparison. If the firm's MARR is known to be 13%, determine the processing cost per ton of solid waste incurred by each incinerator. Assume that incinerator B will be available in the future at the same cost and there are 365 days in a year.
