Answer:

The equipment should not cost more than  $6,318,545.68  

Explanation:

The most that the land scrapping equipment could cost is the present of the 1.5  million annuity discounted at 6% p.a.

Present Value of Annuity = A × ( 1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- 1,500,000, n- 5, r- 6%

=1, 500,000 × ((1.06)^(-5))/0.06

= $6,318,545.68  

The equipment should not cost more than  $6,318,545.68
