Civil Engineering The first cost of an electric rebar bender is P364,000 and a salvage value of P45,000 at the end of its life for 5 years. Money is worth 5.9% annually. If there is no salvage value and the annual maintenance cost is P16,000, find the annual cost of perpetual service. Express your answer in whole number. Not use excel
Tuas Limited (“Tuas”) is considering to replace its existing air-conditioning system with an energy efficient centralised cooling system that is compliant with BCA Green Mark 2021 (“new cooling system”).Civil engineering costs to assess the feasibility of the new cooling system of $50,000 was incurred last month. Installing the new cooling system will cost $320,000, and maintenance expense of $25,000 per year is required. An initial investment in spare parts inventory of $12,000 is needed, which will be fully recovered at the end of its useful life of five years.Savings in utilities is estimated to be $150,000 per year for the next five years. Tuas adopts a policy of depreciating such equipment to zero net book value equally over five years. A salvage value of $20,000 is anticipated. Corporate tax rate is 17% and the discount rate is 10%. Solve the cash flow from assets for Years 0 to 5 (inclusive) relating to the new cooling system, and appraise whether Tuas should proceed with it.…

1. A building owner is planning a renovation to an existing building, at an MARR of 10%. As part of this renovation, they have two options: a) Retain the current HVAC equipment, which has a current market value of $24,000. Its operating costs next year will be $7500, and these costs will increase by 35% each year. Its salvage value will decrease by 20% each year. b) Obtain a new, more energy-efficient HVAC system at a cost of $40,000. It will have operating costs of $7,000 in the first year, which will increase by 30% each year afterwards. Its salvage value will decrease by 24% each year. Do the following: a) Determine whether the current system should be replaced now. b) Determine the replacement strategy considering a 3-year service life.

Your company has purchased a large new truck-tractor for over-the-road use (asset class 00.26). It has a cost basis of $180,000. With additional options costing $15,000, the cost basis for depreciation purposes is $195,000. Its MV at the end of five years is estimated as $40,000. Assume it will be depreciated under the GDS: Solve, a. What is the cumulative depreciation through the endof year three? b. What is the MACRS depreciation in the fourth year? c. What is the BV at the end of year two?
Lesson: Capitalized Cost A machine costs P 500,000 with a yearly maintenance of P 75,000. Considering it has no salvage value at the end of its five-year life and that is should be replaced every five years as recommended by the maintenance engineer. What is the total capitalized cost of the entire investment? Money is worth 5%. (Show solution)
A surface mount PCB placement/soldering line is to be installed for $1,800,000. It will have a salvage value of $90,000 after 5 years. Determine the depreciation deduction and the resulting unrecovered investment during each year of the asset’s life. Determine the depreciation deduction and the resulting unrecovered investment during each year of the asset’s life using declining balance depreciation using double declining balance switching to straight line depreciation.
