Question 54158: Hi, I need help on the following problem.
Your department sends its copying to the photocopy service down the street. The service bills your department $0.09 per page. Your department is considering purchasing a copier for $2750. The expense per page with the copier would be $0.04. If the expected life of the copier is 4 years, how many copies must the department make in the 4-year period to justify the expenditure for the copier?
