You are building guest huts at a holiday resort, and you need to choose whether to build your huts out of straw, wood, or brick. Straw is the cheapest but depreciates the most quickly; brick is the most expensive but depreciates least; wood is intermediate. Assume that all types of huts are equally picturesque/functional. They differ only in terms of durability. The cost (and depreciation rates) of the different hut types is: - Brick: £3,500 (10% depreciation) - Wood: £3,000 (15% depreciation) - Straw: £2,500 (20% depreciation) a) The interest rate is 5%, which type of hut should you buy? b) The interest rate is 20%, which type of hut should you buy? c) Intuitively, why were the answers for parts (a) and (b) different? Explain in words.
