A construction company operates a bulldozer that initially costs $28,000. The first year maintenance is $600, the second year is $900, and $1200 the third year. The salvage value at the end of the third year is $15,000. If the company decides to keep the bulldozer beyond the third year, the maintenace costs are: $900 the fourth year, $1150 the fifth year, $1300 the sixth year. There is a $7000 cost at the end of the third year if the bulldozer is kept. The salvage value at the end of six years is $10,000. If the bulldozer is kept for two more years, another overhaul at the end of the sixth year will cost $14,000. Maintenance costs will be $9900 at the end of the seventh and eighth years. Compare the annual costs if the bulldozer is kept for three years, six years, or eight years. Assume the eight-year salvage value is zero. Use 10%
