Video Solution: 09.02-PR019 A portable concrete test instrument used in construction for evaluating and profiling concrete surfaces (MACRS-GDS 5-year property class) is under consideration by a construction form for $23,000. The instrument will be used for 6 years and be worth $2,750 at that time. The annual cost of use and maintenance will be $6,000. Alternatively, a more automated instrument (same property class) available from the manufacturer costs $26,000, with use and maintenance costs of only $5,500 and salvage value after 6 years of $2,500. The marginal tax rate is 25%, and MARR is an after-tax 12%. Determine which alternative is less costly, based upon comparison of after-tax annual worth.
