On January 1, 2020, the City of Hastings creates a solid waste landfill that it expects to reach capacity gradually over the next 20 years. If the landfill were to be closed at the current time, closure costs would be approximately $1.85 million plus an additional $790,000 for postclosure work. Of these totals, the city must pay $58,900 on December 31 of each year for preliminary closure work. At the end of 2020, the landfill reaches 6 percent of capacity. At the end of 2021, the landfill reaches 16 percent of capacity. At the end of 2021, a reassessment is made. Experts determine total closure costs will be $2.05 million rather than $1.85 million. a.

Green County is planning to construct a bridge across the south branch of Carey Creek to facilitate traffic flow though Clouser Canyon. The first cost for the bridge will be $9,500,000. Annual maintenance and repairs the first year of operation, estimated to be $10,000, are expected to increase by $1000 each year thereafter. In addition to regular maintenance, every 5 years the roadway will be resurfaced at a cost of $750,000, and the structure must be painted every 3 years at a cost of $100,000. If Green County uses 5% as its cost of money and the bridge is expected to last for 20 years, what is the EUAC?
