Answer:
It will be willing to pay up to $297,853.46
Explanation:
First, we calculate present value of the cash saving
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C 45000
time 8
rate 0.05
[tex]45000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.05)^{-8} }{0.05} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $290,844.57
Then, the present Value of the salvage value
[tex]\frac{Salvage}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 7.50 %
time 8.00
rate 0.05
[tex]\frac{7.5}{(1 + 0.05)^{8} } = PV[/tex]
PV 5.08 %
This is calculate as a percent, because we are not given with a cash value.
Last, the 12,000 major overhaul
[tex]\frac{Overhaul}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity -12,000.00
time 8.00
rate 0.05
[tex]\frac{12000}{(1 + 0.05)^{8} } = PV[/tex]
PV -8,122.07
This PV is negative as it is a cash out-flow
Lastly, we add them all:
290,844.57 + 0.0508PV - 8,122.07 = PV
And solve for PV
290,844.57 - 8,122.07 = PV - 0.0508PV
282,722.5 = 0.9492PV
282,722.5/0.9492 = PV
PV = 297,853.455541 = 297,853.46
