Phoenix Manufacturing Company is planning to modernize one of its distribution
centers located outside Denver, Colorado. Two options to move goods in the dis-
tribution center have been under consideration: a conveyor system and forklift
trucks. The firm expects that the distribution center will be operational for the next
10 years, and then it will be converted into a factory outlet. The conveyor system
would last eight years whereas the forklift trucks would last only six years. The two
options will be designed differently but will have identical capacities and will do
exactly the same job. The expected cash flows for the two options, including main-
tenance costs, salvage values, and tax effects, are as follows:
Conveyor System
Lift Trucks

With this scenario, which option should the firm select at MARR = 12%?
