Acme Steel Fabricators experienced booming business forthe past five years. The company fabricates a wide range ofsteel products, such as railings, ladders, and light structuralsteel framing. The current manual method of materials han-dling is causing excessive inventories and congestion. Acmeis considering the purchase of an overhead rail-mountedhoist system or a forklift truck to increase capacity and im-prove manufacturing efficiency.The annual pretax payoff from the system depends on futuredemand. If demand stays at the current level, the probabilityof which is 0.50, annual savings from the overhead hoist willbe $10,000. If demand rises, the hoist will save $25,000 annu-ally because of operating efficiencies in addition to new sales.Finally, if demand falls, the hoist will result in an estimatedannual loss of $65,000. The probability is estimated to be 0.30for higher demand and 0.20 for lower demand.If the forklift is purchased, annual payoffs will be $5,000if demand is unchanged,…
