The salvage value of a front loader at the end of 4 years is Php23,000 and Php18,000 at the end of 5 years. The investment cost of the loader is Php39,000. If the maintenance cost is Php17,000 in year 1 and increases by Php1,200 every year, decide whether the loader should be kept for 4 or 5 years using annual worth analysis. Assume interest rate at 12% per year.
