A new machine will cost $250,000. The expected market value of the machine at the end of each year, and the annual maintenance costs are given in the table below. Assuming 11% cost of capital, what is the economic life of the machine? Clearly answer the question. (Hint: construct a table similar to Example 9-4 in the textbook.)
