A contractor has purchased a wheel loader for $115,000 and plans to use it 2,000 hours per year. The cost of one set of tires is $25,000. At this usage rate, the contractor anticipates disposing of the loader after using it for 10 years and realizing a salvage value of $35,000. The flywheel horsepower rating of the loader’s diesel engine is 105 horsepower. The interest rate is 10%. The loader operator will earn $34.00 per hour including fringe benefits, and diesel fuel costs $1.20 per gallon.How much is the contractor’s hourly depreciation portion of ownership cost for the loader if using the Time Value Method (see textbook page 42 Example 2.8 for reference)?

Continue with question #15,Please calculate the hourly tire depreciation cost of the second set of tires considering the time value of money, assuming that the loader has a service life of 10 years and operates 2,000 hours per year, and a set of tires can be expected to last 4,000 hours. (See textbook page 49 Example 2.14 for reference)
