Kim Inc. must install a new air-conditioning unit in its main
plant. Kim must install one or the other of the units; otherwise,
the highly profitable plant would have to shut down. Two units are
available, HCC and LCC (for high and low capital costs,
respectively). HCC has a high capital cost but relatively low
operating costs, while LCC has a low capital cost but higher
operating costs because it uses more electricity. The costs of the
units are shown here. Kim's WACC is 7.5%.
