Uncle Wilbur’s trout ranch is now for sale for $30,000. Annual property taxes, maintenance, supplies, and so on are estimated to continue to be $3,000 per year. Revenues from the ranch are expected to be $10,000 next year and then to decline by $400 per year thereafter through the 10th year. If you bought the ranch, you would plan to keep it for only five years and at that time to sell it for the value of the land, which is $15,000. If your desired MARR is 12% per year, should you become a trout rancher? Use the PW method.

A certain service can be performed satisfactorily by process R, which has a capital investment cost of $8,000, an estimated life of 10 years, no market value, and annual net receipts (revenues – expenses) of $2,400. Assuming a MARR of 18% before income taxes, find the FW of this process and specify whether you would recommend it.
