The Johnson Company pays $1700 a month to a trucker to haul wastepaper and cardboard to the city dump. The material could be recycled if the company were to buy a $48,000 hydraulic press baler and spend $21,000 a year for labor to operate the baler. The baler has an estimated useful life of 15 years and no salvage value. Strapping material would cost $1500 per year for the estimated 600 bales a year that would be produced.

Use an annual cash flow analysis and an interest rate of 8% to recommend whether it is economical to install and operate the baler.
