D makes sense too. No spare parts means it's time to let go.

I think it's A. Cost is key for keeping an asset.

Performance standards definitely play a big role, so C is valid too.

Wait, can an asset really be useless just because parts are gone?

I don't think it's just about cost, though. What about skills?

It's basically when keeping the asset isn't cost-effective anymore.

I’m confused about this one. I thought economic life was more about maintenance and parts availability, which could relate to option D.

I feel like we covered something similar in class, and I think it was about the age of the asset, which could point to option A again.

I remember discussing how an asset's performance impacts its value, which makes me lean towards option C, but I'm not entirely sure.

I think the economic life of an asset relates to its cost-effectiveness, so maybe option A is correct?
