Porcelain sinks have a lifespan of 10 years. Prorate your original cost and charge the tenants what the remaining useful life of the sink would be.

Where did you get that idea?

This is from the National Builders Associations; Sinks (enamel steel sink) - 5-10 years. Sinks (enamel cast iron sink) - 25-30 years. Sinks (Porcelain sink) - 25-30 years. A porcelain sink should last at least 25 years or more. Far longer than anonymous posted.

I agree and those numbers are very conservative.
