A cherry prоcessing fаcility in Nоrthern Michigаn prоcesses both sweet аnd tart cherries for local growers. The facility needs to install a new cherry pitter. An analyst recently obtained the following estimates. Preliminary feasibility study (this year, year 0) $3,000 Purchase & install system (this year, year 0) $230,000 Annual operating costs (years 1-8) $13,000 in year 1, increasing by $3,000 each year Salvage value (year 8) $23,000 Other phase-out activities (year 8) $2,250 The cherry pitter would be used for eight years. The facility uses a before-tax MARR of 8% per year for these types of decisions. (Round to nearest dollar.)
