Blue Whale Moving and Storage recently pur­chased a warehouse building in Santiago. The manager has two good options for moving pallets of stored goods in and around the facility. Alterna­tive 1 includes a 4000-pound capacity, electric forklift (P = $?30,000; n = 12 years; AOC = $?1000 per year; S = $8000), and 500 new pallets at $10 each. The forklift operator’s annual salary and indirect benefits are estimated at $32,000. Alternative 2 involves the use of two electric pallet movers (“walkies”) each with a 3000-pound capacity (for each mover, P = $?2000; n = 4 years; AOC = $?150 per year; no salvage) and 800 pal­lets at $10 each. The two operators’ salaries and benefits will total $55,000 per year. For both op­tions, new pallets are purchased now and every 2 years

that the equipment is in use. (a) If the MARR is 8% per year, select the better alternative. (b) Rework using a spreadsheet solution. What will be an ideal response?
