Sonja will be operating on a lot that is to be converted into a parking lot in six years, but that may be rented in the interim for $700 per month. The franchise and necessary equipment will have a total initial cost of $68,000 and a salvage value of $9,000 (in today's dollars) after six years. Sonja is told that the future annual general inflation rate will be 5%. The projected operating revenues and expenses (in actual dollars) other than rent and depreciation for the business are given in the table below.
