Using Annual Worth Cost Method The engineer of a medium-scale industry was instructed to prepare at least two plans which is to be considered by management for the improvement of their operations. Plan A calls for an initial investment of 200,000 pesos now with a prospective salvage value of 20% of the first cost 20 years hence. The operation and maintenance disbursements are estimated to be 15,000 per year and taxes will be 2% of the first cost.
