Solar Hydro manufactures a revolutionary aeration system that combines coarse and fine bubble aera­tion components. This year (year 1) the cost for check valve components is $9,000. Based on clo­sure of a new contract with a distributor in China and volume discounts, the company expects this cost to decrease. If the cost in year 2 and each year thereafter decreases by $560, what is the equiva­lent annual cost for a 5-year period at an interest rate of 10% per year?

What will be an ideal response?


A = 9000 – 560(A/G,10%,5)
= 9000 – 560(1.8101)
= $7986
