An independent contractor for a transportation company needs to determine whether she should upgrade the vehicle she currently
owns or trade her vehicle in to lease a new vehicle. If she keeps her vehicle, she will need to invest in immediate upgrades that cost
$5,200 and it will cost $1,300 per year to operate at the end of year that follows. She will keep the vehicle for 5 years; at the end of this
period, the upgraded vehicle will have a salvage value of $3,800. Alternatively, she could trade in her vehicle to lease a new vehicle. She
estimates that her current vehicle has a trade-in value of $9,800 and that there will be $4,100 due at lease signing. She further
estimates that it will cost $2,900 per year to lease and operate the vehicle. The independent contractor's MARR is 11%. Compute the
EUAC of both the upgrade and lease alternatives using the insider perspective.
