Initial investment $10,000 $18,000 $25,000 $30,000
Annual saving in materials costs 4,000 6,000 7,500 9,000
Annual operating cost 2,000 3,000 3,000 4,000
The company can obtain a 15% annual return on its' investment in other projects and is willing to invest money on the processing equipment only as long as_ it can obtain 15% annual return on each increment of money invested. Which one, if any, of the alternatives should be selected? Use a rate of return analysis.
