Develop a cost model for the purchase of the system. There should be cost elements for each component block. A recurring cost per year should be estimated based on the expected number of failures in a year for each component. Assume a bad component is replaced at 50% of the initial purchase price. The 50% accounts for repairs rather than a full replacement. Also, assume 24 hrs a day, 7 day a week operation.
