Kent Duncan is exploring the possibility of opening a self-service car wash and operating it for the next five years until he retires. He has gathered the following information: A building in which a car wash could be installed is available under a five-year lease at a cost of $3,400 per month. Purchase and installation costs of equipment would total $315,000. In five years the equipment could be sold for about 10% of its original cost. An investment of an additional $2,000 would be required to cover working capital needs for cleaning supplies, change funds, and so forth. After five years, this working capital would be released for investment elsewhere. Both a wash and a vacuum service would be offered. Each customer would pay $1.54 for a wash and $.85 for access to a vacuum cleaner. The only variable costs associated with the operation would be 7.5 cents per wash for water and 10 cents per use of the vacuum for electricity. In addition to rent, monthly costs of operation…

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.
