Leonard, a company that manufactures explosion-proof motors, is considering two alternatives for expanding its international export capacity. Option 1 requires equipment purchases of $900,000 now and $560,000 two years from now, with annual M&O costs of $79,000 in years 1 through 10. Option 2 involves subcontracting some of the production at costs of $280,000 per year beginning now through the end of year 10. Neither option will have a significant salvage value. Use a present worth analysis to determine which option is more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year. (Note: Check out the spreadsheet exercises for new options that Leonard has been offered recently.)

Two methods can be used to produce expansion anchors. Method A costs $80,000 initially and will have a $15,000 salvage value after 3 years. The op erating cost with this method will be $30,000 in year 1, increasing by $4000 each year. Method B will have a first cost of $120,000, an operating cost of $8000 in year 1, increasing by $6500 each year, and a $40,000 salvage value after its 3-year life. At an interest rate of 12% per year, which method should be used on the basis of a present worth analysis?

Problem 5.21 An engineer is trying to decide which process to use to reduce sludge volume prior to disposal. Belt filter presses (BFP) will cost $203,000 to buy and $85,000 per year to operate. Belts will be replaced one time per year at a cost of $5500. Centrifuges (Cent) will cost $396,000 to buy and $119,000 per year to operate, but because the centrifuge will produce a thicker “cake”, the sludge hauling cost to the monofill will be $37,000 per year less than for the belt presses. The useful lives are 5 and 10 years for alternatives BFP and Cent, respectively, and the salvage values are assumed to be 10% of the first cost of each process whenever they are closed down or replaced. Use PW evaluation to select the more economical process at an interest rate of 6% per year over (
a
) the LCM of lives, and (
b
) a study period of 8 years. Are the decisions the same?

Parker Hannifin of Cleveland, Ohio manufactures CNG fuel dispensers. It needs replacement equipment to streamline one of its production lines for a new contract, but plans to sell the equipment at or before its expected life is reached at an estimated market value for used equipment. Select between the two options using the corporate MARR of 15% per year and a future worth analysis for the expected use period. Also, write the FV spreadsheet functions that will display the correct future worth values.

The Golden Gate bridge is maintained by 38 painters and 17 ironworkers (who replace corroding steel and rivets). If the painters get an average wage of $120,000 per year (with benefits) and the ironworkers get $150,000 per year, what is the capitalized cost today of all the future wages for bridge maintenance at an interest rate of 8% per year?

Charlie’s Truck Repair and Service has a new contract that requires him to purchase and maintain new equipment for work on 18-wheeler trucks and heavy road equipment. Two separate vendors have made quotes and estimates for Charlie. Use the es timates and a 6% per year return requirement to find the better economic option. One problem is that Charlie does not currently know if the contract will last for 5, 8, or 10 years. He needs a recommendation for all three time periods.
