Annual cost to maintain old forklift is $5,000
Equivalent Annual Cost (EAC) of new forklift = (Asset price x discount rate)/(1-(1+discount rate)-n), in which n is the number of year for usage of this forklift?
If discount rate is 4% per year, the EAC of new forklift is $2,465.82
= ($20,000x4%)/(1-(1+4%)-10)
If discount rate is 12% per year, the EAC of new forklift is $3,539.68
= ($20,000x12%)/(1-(1+12%)-10)
We should replace because with such above discount rate, the old forklift is more costly than the new one
