Compute on annual cost basis
Engr. Diamse is considering the purchase of a generating set to supply the electrical needs of his office during power interruptions. The first offer he received is for a gasoline driven unit with an estimated life span of 5 years and would cost him 52,000. The annual maintenance cost is estimated to be 8,300, annual operating cost would be 27,600 and salvage value would be 7,200. The second offer is for a diesel engine driven unit with an estimated life span of 10 years, annual maintenance cost of 5,800, operating yearly cost of 18,800 and salvage value of 11,900. The price offered for the unit is 98,250. If Engr. Diamse would need the services of a generator for 10 years, which of the two offers would be better to accept if cost of money is 20%.
