Answer:

Machine B should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost

Explanation:

To determine the better of the two options, we would compare the equivalent annual cost of each options using a discount rate of 14% per annum

Equivalent annual cost = Total PV of cost /Annuity factor

Total PV of cost = Initial cost + PV of annual operating cost

PV of annual operating cost= Annual operating cost × Annuity factor

Annuity factor = (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r- rate , n- years

Machine A

PV of annual operating cost = 8,000 × (1- 1.14^(-3)/0.14= 18573.05622

PV of total cost = 290,000 +18573.05622 = 308,573.06

Uniform Annual cost = 308,573.06 /2.321632027 = 132,912.13

Equivalent annual cost = $132,912.13

Machine B

PV of annual operating cost = 12,000 × (1- 1.14^(-2)/0.14= 19759.92613

PV of total cost = 180,000 + 19759.92613 = 199,759.93

Equivalent annual cost = 199,759.93 /1.6466=$121,312.15

Equivalent annual cost = $121,312.15

Machine B should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost

From the perspective of the long position for each of the two options upon expiration

a) For $105

for the long position ( long call ) since the expired price > than the exercise price

i.e. $105 > $100 the profit = $105 - $100 = $5

b) For $95

For the long position ( long call ) since the expired price < than the exercise price

i.e. $95 < $100 the profit = $95 - $100 = - $5 ( a loss is incurred )
