A construction company is budgeting for an excavator with an initial tire cost of $10,000 and a salvage value of $2,000 over a life span of 6,000 hours. Calculate the tire depreciation cost per hour. Additionally, if market prices increase the replacement cost to $12,000, how would it impact the operational cost?
Follow the depreciation formula and assess how changes in costs will impact your hourly projections.
Analyze a scenario where you have to compare two different tire models for an excavator; one costs $9,000 with a lifespan of 4,000 hours and the other costs $12,000 with a lifespan of 5,000 hours. Which one would be more cost-effective and why?
Evaluate the cost per hour to determine which tire model is financially smarter over its productive life.
