- how the "Water Refilling Station " contribute to improve the standards of living of employees and lowering prices of commodities?arrow_forwardAn airport needs a modern material handling system for facilitating access to and from a busy maintenance hangar. A second-hand system will cost $75,000. A new system with improved technology can decrease labor hours by 20% compared to the used system. The new system will cost $150,000 to purchase and install. Both systems have a useful life of five years. The market value of the used system is expected to be $20,000 in five years, and the market value of the new system is anticipated to be $50,000 in five years.
