Engineering Economics You bought a new car which you intend to use as a public utility vehicle for P950,000. The expected life of the car is ten (10) years for its intended use. Your driver and you agreed that for the first five (5) years , your “boundary” is P1,500.00 per day and P1,000.00 per day for the rest of its economic life. You also expected a repair and maintenance costs of P30,000 every six (6) months from year one (1) to five (5) and P50,000 from year six (6) to ten (10). At the end of 10 years you can sell the car for P100,000. If your MARR on invested capital is 15% every (6) months, determine whether this is a good investment. Use the Annual Worth method in your solution. Indicate all other assumptions you use in your analysis. Manually solve and don't use excel as a solution.

A project your firm is considering for implementation has these estimated costs and revenues: an investment cost of $58,548, maintenance costs that start at $5,000 at end-of-year (FOY) one and increase by $1,000 for each of the next four years, and then remain constant for the following five years; savings of $20,007 per year (EOY 1-10); and finally a resale value of $33,311 at EOY 10. If the project has a 10-year life and the firm's MARR is 10% per year, what is the present worth of the project?
Buying Equipment 1 from XYZ company and company ABC will give the production similar productivity input of 400,000.00 per year. The equipment from company XYZ has a purchase price of 200,000.00, annual maintenance of 5,000.00, and production life of 10 years, while the equipment from company ABC has a purchase price of 100,000.00, annual maintenance of 2,000.00, and production life of 12. Using present worth method, what is the present values of their purchase profit? Use MARR of 20%

Calisto Launch Services is an independent space corporation and has been contracted to develop and launch one oftwo different satellites. Initial equipment will cost $750,000 for the first satellite and $850,000 for the second.Development will take 5 years at an expected cost of $150,000 per year for the first satellite; $120,000 per year forthe second. The same launch vehicle can be used for either satellite and will cost $275,000 at the time of the launch5 years from now. At the conclusion of the launch, the contracting company will pay Calisto $2,500,000 for eithersatellite.Calisto is also considering whether they should consider launching both satellites. Because Calisto would haveto upgrade its facilities to handle two concurrent projects, the initial costs would rise by $150,000 in addition to thefirst costs of each satellite. Calisto would need to hire additional engineers and workers, raising the yearly costs to atotal of $400,000. An additional compartment would be added to…
A new project is being planned for a study period of 8 years. It will require P250,000 for the start-up and after theend of the first year, P13,500 shall be paid for its innovation. The board then requires to add another modifiedtechnology which will cost P25,000 by the end of the second year. After the end of third year, the project will startto earn P57,500 annually. Calculate the annual effective interest rate using ERR method if the interest rate externalto this project (ε) is 13.75%.

There are two MEA machines that you are evaluating: Machine A has a lifetime of 6, an initial cost of €138642 and a positive salvage value of €29860. Machine B has a lifetime of 4, an initial cost of €182463, annual cost of €49000 and a positive salvage value of €14820. Your MARR is 0,17%. If you have selected Machine A, what is the maximum annual cost that this machine may have? (Do NOT use Excel.Show and explain All the steps. Need to learn for a test.)
