Solar cells will cost $14,000 to install with a useful life of 10 years. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. are expected to be $1500. A new power line will cost $12,000 to install and the power costs are estimated at $600 per year. The salvage value of the solar cells is expected to be 25% of the first cost when the sampling project ends in 4 years. The electric line will stay in place, so its salvage value is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 10% per year, which alternative should be selected?arrow_forward
