Find the expected EUAW from the financial data provided in the table for new equipment. Because of the uncertainty of technology being used in this equipment, it has not been possible to get the initial cost accurately. The annual benefit, however, is estimated to be $25,000 with a possible equipment life of 5 years. The salvage value is expected to be 10% of the initial cost. MARR = 8%. First Cost, $ $60,000 $80,000 $100,000 $120,000 Probability 0.25 0.35 0.30 0.10 Choices: A. $3957 B. $2977 C. $4628 D. $5157 Determine the associated risk measure in this equipment investmest in terms of standard deviation.
