Transcribed Image Text:Alternative X has a first cost of 9000 an
annual operating cost of 1500, and a
salvage value of 2325 after 8 year.
Alternative Y has a first cost of 10000 an
annual operating cost of 1600 , and a
salvage value of 3800 after 8 year. If MARR
of 8% per year, approximately what is the
PW of each alternative?
Select one:
O a. PW of X= -16528 and PW of Y=
-17313
O b. PW of X= -16860 and PW of Y=
-17661
O c. PW of X= -16693 and PW of Y=
-17486
