READ THE QUESTION CAREFULLY PLEASE! YOU HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION TREE!! You must decide whether to buy, build or lease a building for your business needs over the next 10 years. If you decide to build, you must determine if it is better to buy an existing building and modify it or buy land and build one to match your needs. Leasing an appropriate building will cost $10,000 per month with an annual increase of 3% per year and will require some retrofitting to suit your needs ($700,000). Empty land will cost $2,500,000 and the construction of a new building would be $3,000,000. You can buy an existing building for $2,500,000 but you will have to modify it to your needs at a cost of $1,200,000. However, the building itself is quite old and will be at the end of its useful life when the ten years are up. You estimate that the land alone is worth $2,000,000.
