Differential analysis involving opportunity costs
Â
On July 1, Coastal Distribution Company is considering leasing a building and buying the necessary equipment to operate a public warehouse.  Alternatively,  the  company could use the funds to invest in $740,000 of 5% U.S. Treasury bonds that mature in 14 years. The bonds could be purchased at face value. The following data have been assembled:
Â
Cost of equipment                                                                                      $740,000
Life of equipment                                                                                          14 years
Estimated residual value of equipment                                                                                                                                      $75,000 Yearly costs to operate the warehouse, excluding
depreciation of equipment                                                         $175,000
Yearly expected revenues—years 1–7                                         $280,000
Yearly expected revenues—years  8–14                                      $240,000
Â
