are being Motors from two different manufacturers considered for application. Both motors are 50 hp, 460 volts, 3 phase and 60 hertz, but motor A operates at 80% efficiency whereas motor B operates 88% efficiency. The expected life of motors is 15 years. Motor A costs P60,000 and Motor B costs P75,000. Electrical energy costs P2 per kW-hr and the motors will be operated 8 hrs per day, 250 days per year. Assume taxes are 3%. Which motor should be purchased if money is worth 15%.

E2 A steel bridge on Louisiana state highway near the Gulf of Mexico is costing $450.000 yearlyin maintenance large chipping, priming, and painting. It originaly cost $1.600.000 when it wasbuilt 15 years ago. The Louisiana bridge engineers estimate that its remaining life is 10 years,then it will need to be replaced because of increased traffic. Its salvage value at any point intime is zero, because the cost of demolition will most like equal its value as scrap steel.A concrete bridge is considered to be the best challenger. It will cost $3.000.000 to build and$100.000 annually in maintenance costs. Its estimated life is 50 years. Its resale value may becounted as zero at any time during its life.No taxes of any kind will be considered for this government project. All costs are in constantdollars of year 0. Inflation may be ignored. Assume that annual benefits for either structure areexactly the same. A discount rate of 10 percent is to be used in analysis.(a) What is the economic life…

The Cornballer, invented by George Bluth in the mid-1970s, is a device used to make cornballs. Itsold for $29.95. Suppose that 10,000 Cornballers were sold in 1981; 11,000 in 1982; and salesincreasing by 10% each year until it was last sold in 1990 (when it was made illegal). Assume aninterest rate of 12% per year. Assume sales were made at EOY. What was the worth of these cashflows in 1980? Show in standard factor notation and show the cash flow diagrams.
A project is being considered that has a first cost of $12,500, creates $5000 in annual cost savings, requires $3000 in annual operating costs, and has a salvage value of $2000 after a project life of 3 years. If interest is 10% per year, which formula calculates the project’s present worth? (a) PW = 12,500(P/F, 10%, 1) + (− 5000 + 3000) (P/A, 10%, 3) − 2000(F/P, 10%, 3) (b) PW = − 12,500 + (5000 − 3000) (P/A, 10%, 3 ) − 2000(P/F, 10%, 3) (c) PW = 12,500(F/P, 10%, 3) + (5000 − 3000) (F/A, 10%, 3) + 2000 (d) PW = − 12, 500 + 5000(P/A, 10%, 3) − 3000 (P/A, 10%, 3) + 2000(P/F, 10%, 3)
