1.) Clinix is considering four independent projects. Given: All the projects will be economically viable for only 10 years; Company’s MARR = 12% per year Find: Which project should be selected based on a present worth analysis. *Note* Financial values are in $1,000 units. Project A Project B Project C Project D First Cost ($) -2,700 -1,400 -10,000 -9,500 Annual Net Profit ($/year) 800 1,200 2,400 3,200 Salvage Value ($) 25 30 45 60
1. The Present Worth Method A project your firm is considering for implementation has these estimated costs and revenues: an investment cost of $50,000; maintenance costs that start at $5,000 at the end of year (EOY) 1 and increase by $1,000 for each of the next 4 years, and then remain constant for the following 5 years; savings of $20,000 per year (EOY 1–10); and finally a resale value of $35,000 at the EOY 10. If the project has a 10-year life and the firm’s MARR is 10% per year, what is the present worth of the project? Is it a sound investment opportunity?
P is using an 11% annual interest rate to decide if they should buy Truck A or Truck B. Which truck is more economical to buy, assuming that the two trucks serve similarfunctions and purposes? Use (a) Annual Cost Method (b) Present Worth Method, (c) Rateof Return on Additional Investment method. Formulas to be used: Rate of return on additional investment =(Savings of Benefits / Additional Capital) x 100% ROR≥ MARR (Choose the alternative with larger capital) ROR ≤ MARR (Choose the alternative with lesser capital investment)
A manufacturer with a MARR of 20% is considering the installation of one of three packaging machines. The economic parameters of each machine are as follows: Packaging machine: X Y Z Initial cost ($) 20,000 40,000 15,000 Uniform annual benefit ($) 120,000 180,000 100,000 Uniform annual O&M cost ($) 70,000 50,000 70,000 Service life (years) 6 3 12 Salvage value end of life ($) 2,000 4,000 2,000 The present worth (PW) for machine X over the 12 years analysis period is:
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)
