Acustomer calls to ask how often he should change the oil in a lawn mower engine. after asking the customer for the manufacturer's name and the model number of the lawn mower engine, you check the service manual for the engine. the engine manufacturer recommends that you change the oil after every 50 hours of light- or normal-duty operation, or after every 25 hours of heavy-duty operation. the customer tells you that he is the groundskeeper at a local golf resort. he uses this mower only to trim the greens on the course. he mows the greens 2 times per week; each time, it takes a total of 5 hours to complete the job. the golf course is open 30 weeks out of the year. if you consider the mowing of the golf course to be normal-duty operation, how often should you tell the customer to change the oil in the mower engine? (hint: you'll need to calculate the total number of hours the groundskeeper uses the mower per year. assume that it's now the beginning of the 30-week golf resort season.)
a. the oil should be changed a total of 2 times during the 30-week season.
b. the oil should be changed a total of 3 times during the 30-week season.
c. the oil should be changed a total of 6 times during the 30-week season.
d. the oil should be changed a total of 10 times during the 30-week season.

Suppose that a major city’s main thoroughfare, which is also an interstate highway, will be completely closed to traffic for two years, from january 2014 to december 2015, for reconstruction at a cost of $535 million. if the construction company were to keep the highway open for traffic during construction, the highway reconstruction project would take much longer and be more expensive. suppose that construction would take four years if the highway were kept open, at a total cost of $800 million. the state department of transportation had to make its decision in 2014, one year before the start of construction (so that the first payment was one year away). so the department of transportation had the following choices: (i) close the highway during construction, at an annual cost of $267.5 million per year for two years. (ii) keep the highway open during construction, at an annual cost of $200 million per year for four years. now suppose the interest rate is 80%. calculate the present value of the costs incurred under each plan.
