California Imaging Center, a not-for-profit business, is evaluating the purchase of new diagnostic equipment, The equipment, which costs $600,000, has an expected life of five years and an estimated salvage value of $200,000 at that time. The equipment is expected to be used 15 times a day for 250 days a year for each year of the projects life. On average, each procedure is expected to generate $80 in cash collections during the first year of use. Thus net revenues for year 1 are estimated at 15 x 250 x $80 = $300,000.

Labor and maintenance costs are expected to be $100,000 during the first year of operation, while utilities will cost another $10,000 and cash overhead will increase by $5,000 per procedure during the first year. All costs and revenues are expected to increase at a 5 percent inflation rate after the first year. The centers corporate cost of capital is 10 percent.
