Harglo Construction is considering purchasing a radio antenna for broadcasting to service trucks over the airwaves, rather than using telephone lines. The antenna is expected to reduce cash operating costs by $2000 the first year, $2500 the second year, and $3000 the third year. The antenna will cost $6000, will last three years (due to technological advances), and will have no residual value at the end of its life. Harglo's minimum acceptable rate of return is 8%.
