You are working on a project to replace the CAF temporary shelter systems. After analysing multiple options, you feel the need to analyse two of the main bidders more closely. However, you know that the amount of time the assets will be deployed can greatly vary depending on the Canadian political situation and major events. The CAF uses a MARR of 3% per year compounded annually and a study period of 20 years regardless of service life. Use 5 significant digits in all your calculations.

Assume that the number of months they are deployed, while variable overall, would be the same for all years in the study period. Use the present worth method. b) Draw a break-even chart showing the present worth in relation to the number of months deployed per year.
