2. Tim Halloway is an electrical engineer working at AMC Engineering, who has requested that $500,000 be spent now during construction on software and hardware to improve the efficiency of the environmental control systems. This is expected to save $10,000 per year for 10 years in energy costs and $700,000 at the end of 10 years in equipment refurbishment costs. Use AW computations to find the rate of return for the cash flows (i* range is between 3-6%). Note for full credit- hand computations with factor values must be shown for each % within this range.
