A new Rs. 40, 00,000 machines has just been installed in a plant. It will have no salvage value when it is removed. The plant manager has asked you to estimate the economic service life of the machine. He estimates that annual maintenance cost will be Rs. 2, 50,000 in first year and increase by 10% per year. What service life will result in lowest equivalent uniform annual cost if MARR is 15%? (4589.55)

At what quantity of bags will profits be maximized? A Use the profit maximizing rule, MR ≥ MC, buy 300 bags. B Use the profit maximizing rule, MR ≥ MC, buy 200 bags. C Use Qb = F/(MR-AVC) where Qb is the breakeven quantity to be determined, the optimal quantity of bags is 300. D Use Qb = F/(MR-AVC) where Qb is the breakeven quantity to be determined, the optimal quantity of bags is 200.
