An airline is considering two types of engine systems for use in its planes. Each has the same life and the same maintenance and repair record. System A costs $90,000 and uses 37,000 gallons per 1,000 hours of operation at the average load encountered passenger service. System B costs $250,000 and uses 26,000 gallons per 1,000 hours of operation at the same level. Both engine systems have three-year lives before any major overhaul is required. On the basis of the initial investment, the systems have 18% salvage values. If jet fuel costs $1.87 a gallon (year 1) and fuel consumption expected to increase at the rate of 11% per year because of degrading engine efficiency, which engine system s the firm install? Assume 3,000 hours of operation per year and a MARR of 9%. Use the AE criterion. What is the equivalent operating cost per hour for each engine? Assume an end-of-year convention for the fuel cost. Click the icon to view the interest factors for discrete compounding when MARR = 9% per year. The equivalent annual costs for system A are $ *** (Round to the nearest dollar.)

After contacting the appropriate vendors, the purchasing department received differing terms and options from each vendor. The Engineering Department has determined that each vendor’s punch press is substantially identical and each has a useful life of 20 years. In addition, Engineering has estimated that required year-end maintenance costs will be $1,000 per year for the first 5 years, $2,000 per year for the next 10 years, and $3,000 per year for the last 5 years. Following is each vendor’s sales package. Vendor A: $55,000 cash at time of delivery and 10 year-end payments of $18,000 each. Vendor A offers all its customers the right to purchase at the time of sale a separate 20-year maintenance service contract, under which Vendor A will perform all year-end maintenance at a one-time initial cost of $10,000.

As the engineering and technical manager, you are analyzing the purchase of 55 new trucks as an addition to the fleet. These trucks would be used for a new contract the sales staff is trying to obtain. If purchased, the trucks would cost $21,200 each; estimated use is 20,000 miles per year per truck; estimated operation and maintenance and other related expenses (year-zero dollars) are $0.45 per mile, which is forecasted to increase at the rate of 5% per year; and the trucks are MACRS (GDS) three-year property class assets. The analysis period is four years; t = 38%;MARR = 15% per year (after taxes; includes an inflation component); and the estimated MV at the end of four years (in year-zero dollars) is 35% of the purchase price of the vehicles. This estimate is expected to increaseat the rate of 2% per year. Based on an after-tax, actual-dollar analysis, what is the uniform annual…

The firm is trying to decide whether to purchase trucks with diesel engines or trucks with gasoline engines. The diesel truck will have a useful life of 12 years, after which it will need to be replaced. The diesel truck costs $110,000 to purchase and its annual maintenance and operation costs will depend on the cost of regular maintenance/repairs and the cost of diesel fuel. In Years 1 through 5, its annual maintenance/repair costs are expected to be $2000 per year. In Years 6 through 12, its annual maintenance/repair costs are expected to be $2500 per year. The firm expects that the diesel truck will use 5,900 gallons of diesel fuel per year (Years 1 through 12) and believes that diesel fuel will cost $2.65 per gallon, on average, during the life of the truck. The gasoline truck only costs $60,000 to purchase but will have a useful life of only 4 years, after which it will need to be…An automobile manufacturer is considering a change in an assembly line that should save moneyby reducing labor and material cost. The change involves the installation of four new robots thatwill automatically install windshields. The cost of the four robots, including installation and initial programming, is $400,000. Current practice is to amortize the initial cost of robots over two years on a straight-line basis. The process engineer estimates that one full-time technician will be needed to monitor, maintain, and reprogram the robots on an ongoing basis. This person will cost approximately $60,000 per year. Currently, the company uses four full-time employees on this job and each makes about $52,000 per year. One of these employees is a material handler, and this person will still be needed with the new process. To complicate matters, the process engineer estimates that the robots will apply the windshield sealing material in a manner that will result in a savings of $0.25 per…
