I need help developing a financial comparison statement for the following: Your father has a garden maintenance company and one of the company vans needs to have its gearbox replaced.$$ He has explained to you that his accountant has compared the cost of a new van with repairing the old and concluded that the new van would be less expensive when all costs are considered.$$ Based on research, the current van could be sold for $5,000$ and a new one bought for $30,000,$ or alternatively, the current van could be repaired at a cost of $8,500.$ The annual running costs of the two vans would be $11,700$ for the old one, or $9,000$ for the new $($with better fuel efficiency and lower servicing costs$).$ Whichever way he chooses he has decided that in future he will sell either van after five years, when their value is estimated to be $1,000($old van$)$ or $6,500($new van$).$ He has calculated that the old van would cost a total of $66,000(8,500+5$x$11,7001,000)$ the next five years, compared to $63,500(30,0005,000+5$x$9,0006,500)$ for the new.
