Bunker Hill Mining Company has two competing proposals: a processing mill and an electric shovel. Both pieces of equipment have an initial investment of $750,000. The net cash flows estimated for the two proposals are as follows:
Net Cash Flow Year Processing Mill Electric Shovel
1 $310,000 $330,000
2 260,000 325,000
3 260,000 325,000
4 260,000 320,000
5 180,000
6 130,000
7 120,000
8 120,000
The estimated residual value of the processing mill at the end of Year 4 is $280,000.
