EUAC of Truck A = 29000 * (A/P,7%,4) - 18000 * (A/F,7%,4)
= 29000*0.295228 - 18000 * 0.225228
= 4507.51 ~ 4510 (Nearest 10)
EUAC of Truck B = 32000 * (A/P,7%,4) - 21000 * (A/F,7%,4)
= 32000*0.295228 - 21000 * 0.225228
= 4717.51 ~ 4720 (Nearest 10)
EUAC of Truck A is less at 4510, should be selected
