ANSWER:
I = 5%
N = 10
AW = initial cost(a/p,i,n) + maintenance cost in 1st year + increase in maintenance cost(a/g,i,n) + salvage value(a/f,i,n)
aw = -600,000(a/p,5%,10) - 20,000 - 1,000(a/g,5%,10) + 150,000(a/f,5%,10)
aw = -600,000 * 0.1295 - 20,000 - 1,000 * 4.099 + 150,000 * 0.0795
aw = -77,700 - 20,000 - 4,099 + 11,925
aw = -89,874
so the equivalent annual cost of owning and operating the truck is -$89,874
