An injection molding system has a first cost of $180,000, and an annual operating cost of $84,000 in years 1 and 2, increasing by $5000 per year thereafter. The salvage value of the system is 25% of the first cost regardless of when the system is retired within its maximum useful life of 5 years. Using a MARR of 15% per year, determine the ESL and the respective AW value of the system (a) by hand solution, and (b) via spreadsheet that graphs the total AW and its components.
