Abstract
The Marine Corps Air Station at Yuma, Arizona is
contemplating whether it is more advantageous to
purchase or to lease additional needed radio assets
and associated maintenance services.
In order to analyze the situation from an economic
standpoint, a cost-benefit study was performed on the
alternatives available. Using the Net Present Value
concept, the current value of each alternative was
determined from the cost data available. In addition,
several non-quantitative factors were evaluated in
relation to what additional effects they might have on
the economic determinations.
Based on the data available, and after considering
the potential effects of the non-quantifiable factors,
the most favorable alternative was determined to be to
purchase the needed radio assets and to perform any
necessary maintenance at the government maintenance
facilities at the Marine Corps Air Station at Yuma.
