Assume a cost improvement project has only a firs cost of $100,000 and a monthly net savings, M There is no salvage value. Graph the project's IRF for payback periods from 6 months to the project's life of N years. The firm accepts projects with a 2 year payback period or a 20% IRR. When are these standards consistent and when are they not? (a) Assume that N = 3 years.

Littrell's Nursery needs a new irrigation system. System one will cost $145,000, have annual maintenance costs of $10,000, and need an overhaul at the end of year six costing $30,000. System two will have first year maintenance costs of $5,000 with increases of $500 each year thereafter. System two would not require an overhaul. Both systems will have no salvage value after 12 years. If Littrell's cost of capital is 4%, using annual worth analysis determine the maximum Littrell's should be willing to pay for system two.
