The equivalent annual costs of each model are as follows:
Model A Model B
Equivalent annual costs $2,389.26 $3,008.47
Data and Calculations:
Model A Model B
Costs of motorcycle $8,200 $13,600
Expected years of usage 7 years 9 years
Annual maintenance costs $760 $740
Cost of capital = 9%
Annuity factor 5.03295 5.99524
PV of annual maintenance $3,825.04 $4,436.48
Total NPV of costs $12,025.04 $18,036.48
Equivalent annual costs $2,389.26 $3,008.47
($12,025.04/5.03295) ($18,036.48/5.99524)
Thus, the equivalent annual costs of each model are the dividend of the Total NPV costs divided by the Annuity Factor.
