Transcribed Image Text:9-11. A steel pedestrian overpass must either be
reinforced or replaced. Reinforcement would cost
$25,000 and would make the overpass adequate for an
additional 6 years of service. If the overpass is torn
down now, the scrap value of the steel would exceed
the removal cost by $15,000. If it is reinforced, it is
estimated that its net salvage (market) value would be
$18,000 at the time it is retired from service. A new
pre-stressed concrete overpass would cost $140,000 and
would meet the foreseeable requirements of the next
40 years. Such a design would have no net scrap or MV.
It is estimated that the annual expenses of the reinforced
overpass would exceed those of the concrete overpass
by $3,200. Assume that money costs the state 8% per
year and that the state pays no taxes. What would you
recommend? (9.4, 9.7)
