An independent contractor for a transportation company needs to determine
whether she should upgrade the vehicle she currently owns or trade her vehicle in
to lease a new vehicle. If she keeps her vehicle, she will need to invest in immediate
upgrades that cost $5,000 and it will cost $1,500 per year to operate at the end of
year that follows. She will keep the vehicle for 4 years; at the end of this period, the
upgraded vehicle will have a salvage value of $4,000. Alternatively, she could trade
in her vehicle to lease a new vehicle. She estimates that her current vehicle has a
trade-in value of $10,000 and that there will be $4,500 due at lease signing. She
further estimates that it will cost $3,000 per year to lease and operate the vehicle.
The independent contractor's MARR is 12%. Compute the EUAC of both the
upgrade and lease alternatives using the insider perspective.
