pump can be kept in service for an additional 4 years, or it can be
sold for 36,000 and replaced by a new pump. The purchase price of
the replacement pump is 51,500. The projected MVs and operating
maintenance cost over the four year planning horizon are shown in
the table that follows. Assuming the MARR is 8%, A. determine...
