Anew equipment has been proposed by engineers to increase the productivity of a certain manual welding operation. the investment cost is $25,000, and the equipment will have a market value of $5,000 at the end of a study period of five years. increased productivity attributable to the equipment will amount to $10,000 per year after operating costs have been subtracted from the revenue generated by the additional production. if marr is 10%, is investing in this equipment feasible? use annual worth method.
