You are considering developing an 18-hole championship golf course that requires an investment of $18,000,000. This investment cost includes the course development, club house, and golf carts. Once constructed, you expect the maintenance cost for the golf course to be $640,000 in the first year, $695,000 in the second year and continue to increase by $55,000 in subsequent years. The net revenue generated from selling food and beverage will be about 17% of greens fees paid by the players. The cart fee per player is $20, and 40,000 rounds of golf are expected per year. You will own and operate the course complex for 9 years and expect to sell it for $24,000,000. What is the greens fee per round that will provide a return on investment of 17%? Assume that the greens fee will be increased at an annual rate of 6%.
The greens fee that will provide a return on investment of 17% is _____ per round. (Round to the nearest cent.)

Forklift trucks traditionally have been fueled by either gasoline, liquid propane gas (LPG), or diesel fuel. Battery-powered electric forklifts, however, arc increasingly popular in many industrial sectors because of their economic and environmental benefits. Therefore, the Postal Service is interested in comparing the four different types of forklifts. Purchase costs as well as annual operating and maintenance costs for each type of forklift are provided by a local utility company. Annual fuel and maintenance costs are measured in terms of number of shifts per year, where one shift is equivalent to eight hours of operation.
