A firm purchased a piece of equipment at a price of S320,000. The equipment resulted in an annual net savings of $12,000 per year during the 12 years it was used. At the end of 12 years, the equipment was sold for $98,000. Draw a cash-flow diagram that depicts the situation. Assuming an annual effective interest rate of 6.5%, what was the equivalent cost to the company of this transaction on the purchase date (i.e., what is the present value of all these cash flows)?
