- 1) When and why should a utility approach be applied?2) Explain how utility could be used in a decision where performance is not measuredby monetary value.3) What are the key traits and differences of Project and Review Technique(PERT)/Critical Path Method (CPM)?4) Why perform sensitivity analysis?5) Explain how and why all predecessor activities must be considered when finding theearliest start timeWhich statement is not true with respect to estimating the economic impacts of proposed engineering projects? (a) Order-of-magnitude estimates are used for high-level planning. (b) Order-of-magnitude estimates are the most accurate type at about –3 to 5%. (c) Increasing the accuracy of estimates requires added time and resources. (d) Estimators tend to underestimate the magnitude of costs and to overestimate benefits.A major equipment purchase is being considered by Metro Atlanta. The initial cost is determined to be $1,000,000. It is estimated that this new equipment will save $100,000 the first year and increase gradually by $50,000 every year for the next 6 years. MARR=10% a. Using Benefit- Cost analysis, what is the Benefit/Cost ratio for this equipment purchase? b. Based on the Benefit/Cost analysis should Metro Atlanta purchase the equipment?
- When we talk about massive energy generation through more traditional methods, such as hydroelectric andthermoelectric plants, it is inevitable that we think about environmental aspects and the entire chain involved so that theenergy generated in a locality is taken to large consumer centers. Seeking to improve thisIn this context, microgrids emerged, which can act in isolation or connected to the Interconnected SystemNational. For consumers, the main advantages are medium-term savings and the issue ofenvironmental. For the distributor, the impacts of microgrids are:ALTERNATIVESa) Practically non-existent, as current equipment is energy efficient and connecteddigitally, improving the operation of the network as a whole.b) Technical and environmental, as the consumer stops buying energy from the distributor, and the generation andtransmission becomes obsolete, generating waste for the environment.c) Exclusively technical, as the consumer connects the phases and the neutral to the SIN…The California Forest Service is considering two locations for a new state park. Location Ewould require an investment of $3 million and $50,000 per year in maintenance. Location Wwould cost $7 million to construct, but the Forest Service would receive an additional $25,000per year in park use fees. The operating cost of location W will be $65,000 per year. The revenueto park concessionaires will be $500,000 per year at location E and $700,000 per year at locationW. The disbenefits associated with each location are $30,000 per year for location E and $40,000per year for location W. Use(a) The B/C method, and(b) The modified B/C method to determine which location, if either, should be selected, using aninterest rate of 12% per year. Assume that the park will be maintained indefinitely.Levelised costs of key technologies have changed between the 2016 and 2023data. Discuss what has changed, why it has changed, and what are the implicationsfor public choices around electricity generation?(Tip: focus most of your attention on the largest changes, including carbon costs). can you please provide an answer with explanations that dont include text from AI sites , to explain this thouroughly.
- Q)1.The benefit-cost ratio of a project represents its time-valued benefit per unit investment (first cost) Select one: True Falsebuild a modelAn industrial park is being planned for a tract of land near a river. To prevent flood damage to the industrial buildings that will be built on this low-lying land, an earthen embankment can be constructed. The height of the embankment will be determined by an economic analysis of the costs and benefits.The following data have been gathered (Tables 1 and 2). The embankment is expected to last 40 years and will require no maintenance.Whenever the flood water flows over the embarkment, a $310,000 in annual damages occur. The corporation uses an interest rate of 15% a) if they build the embarkment, what height should it have?
