Q5) You are trying to pick the least-expensive car for your new delivery service. You have two choices: the Scion xA, which will cost $16,500 to purchase and which will have OCF of -$1,700 annually throughout the vehicle's expected life of three years as a delivery vehicle; and the Toyota Prius, which will cost $24,000 to purchase and which will have OCF of -$900 annually throughout that vehicle's expected 4-year life. Both cars will be worthless at the end of their life. You intend to replace whichever type of car you choose with the same thing when its life runs out, again and again out into the foreseeable future.

If the business has a cost of capital of 13 percent, calculate the EAC. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Which one should you choose?

• Scion
• Toyota

Q6) You are considering the purchase of one of two machines used in your manufacturing plant. Machine A has a life of two years, costs $95 initially, and then $140 per year in maintenance costs. Machine B costs $165 initially, has a life of three years, and requires $115 in annual maintenance costs. Either machine must be replaced at the end of its life with an equivalent machine.

The discount rate is 12 percent and the tax rate is zero. Calculate the EAC.

Which one should you choose?

• Machine A
• Machine B

Q7) You are considering the purchase of one of two machines used in your manufacturing plant. Machine A has a life of two years, costs $95 initially, and then $140 per year in maintenance costs. Machine B Costs $165 initially, has a life of three years, and requires $115 in annual maintenance costs. Either machine must be replaced at the end of its life with an equivalent machine.

The discount rate is 12 percent and the tax rate is zero. Calculate the EAC (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decmial places). Which one should you choose?

Machine A Life (Years)	2
Machine A initial cost	$95.00
Machine A maintenance cost	$140.00
Machine B life (Years)	3
Machine B initial cost	$165.00
Machine B maintenance cost	$115.00
Discount rate	12.00%
Tax rate	0.00%
