Newnan Furniture owns and operates an industrial lift truck in its warehousing operation. The record indicates that the lift truck was purchased four years ago at $15,000. The estimated salvage value is $4,000 after four years of operation. First-year O&M expenses were $2,000, but the O&M expenses have increased by $400 each year for the first four years of operation. Using i = 10%, compute the annual equivalent costs of the lift truck for four years on a before-tax basis.

- R. C. Smith purchased a truck for $30,500 to be used in his business. He is considering depre- ciating the truck by two methods: units-of-output (assuming total miles driven of 80,000) and double-declining balance (assuming a five-year useful life). The truck is expected to be sold for approximately $6,500 at the end of its useful life.
