Brooke is evaluating two alternatives for improving the exterior appearance of her Victorian-style house that she is remodeling inside. She plans to keep this as her home for 20 more years. The house can be completely painted at a cost of $10,500. The paint is expected to remain attractive for 5 years, at which time repainting will be necessary. Every time the building is repainted (i.e., in years 5, 10, and 15), the cost will increase by 20% over the previous time.
As an alternative, the exterior can be covered with a vintage-appearing vinyl-coated siding now and again 10 years from now at a cost 27% greater than the present cost of the siding.
At a MARR of 10% per year, what is the maximum amount that Brooke should spend now on the siding alternative so that the two alternatives will just break even? Solve using factors.

If it purchases the house, they will place a down payment of $64,000 on the house. They estimate they will get an annual net rental profit of $8,500 after their mortgage and expenses are paid.

Should the Petersik family invest in the rental home?You must decide whether to buy, build or lease a building for your business needs over the next 10 years. If you decide to build, you must determine if it is better to buy an existing building and modify it or buy land and build one to match your needs. Leasing an appropriate building will cost $10,000 per month with an annual increase of 3% per year and will require some retrofitting to suit your needs ($700,000). Empty land will cost $2,500,000 and the construction of a new building would be $3,000,000. You can buy an existing building for $2,500,000 but you will have to modify it to your needs at a cost of $1,200,000. However, the building itself is quite old and will be at the end of its useful life when the ten years are up. You estimate that the land alone is worth $2,000,000.
