Analysis
The purchase of a Reserve Quint (WO#01500803), a quint for Station 10 (WO#01500703) and the replacement of an Engine (WO#01500903) for the Fire Department are planned purchases for FY2015 . Engine 4 was originally planned for FY2014, however, it was postponed until FY2015 to allow for the replacement of Truck 8 with Quint 8 in FY2014. A trade-in of $28,000 will be credited towards the purchase of the new engine and discounts totaling $63,372 will be credited with the full prepayment of all units. A larger prepayment discount has not been allotted for the reserve unit due to the reduction in price to accept a pre-built unit instead of custom made unit as with Quint 10. Grand total prepayment for these units is $2,100,001.
