1. Two methods can be used for producing expansion anchors. Method A costs $70,000 initially and will have a $15,000 salvage value after 3 years. The operating cost with this method will be $30,000 per year. Method B will have a first cost of $135,000, an operating cost of $8,000 per year, and a $40,000 salvage value after its 3-year life. At the MARR of 12% per year, which method should be used on the basis of a present worth analysis?
