Answer:

equivalent annual cost: 19,784.81

The investment is not economically justified as it is cheaper to pay the fines than invest in the equipment to avoid them.

Explanation:

We calcualte the PMT of a 75,000 dollars equipment at 10%

PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\

PV 75,000

time 5

rate 0.1

75000 \div \frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-5} }{0.1} = C\\

C                 $ 19,784.811

EPA fines:    <u>   </u><u>$ 18,500.00  </u>

differential:          (1, 284.81)

Sally is planning to sell her company and she prefers to obtain immediate liquidity, and the value of consideration to be fixed.
ella [17]

Answer: A cash sale

                                           

Explanation: In simple words, liquidity refers to the ability of an organisation to bear its short term expenses. For that a company must have cash or some assets that can be readily converted into cash in case of need.

Hence Sally should sell her company in cash sale as it will result in inflow of cash which will create liquidity and also the consideration will be certain with short timely payments.

Other option such as IPO or  stock for stock might result in increase in value but certainly won't give her liquidity.
