- A process can be completed using either Alternative X or Y, where Y is an automated version of X. Alternative X has fixed costs of $10,000 per year with a variable cost of $50 per unit. If the process is automated, the fixed cost for Y will be $5,000 per year and its variable cost will be only $30 per unit. The minimum number of units that must be produced each year for alternative Y to be favored is closest to:a. Alternative Y will be favored for any level of productionb. 125c. 375d. Alternative X will be favored for any level of productionTwo methods to control newly discovered poisonous weeds in bar-ditches on the sides of county roads in New Farmendale are under consideration. Method A involves use of a 20-year life lining at an initial cost of $14,000 and an annual maintenance cost of $3 per kilometer (km). Method B involves spraying a chemical that costs $40 per liter. One liter will treat 8 km, but the treatment must be applied four times per year. In determining the number of km per year that would result in breakeven, the variable cost for method B is closest to: (a) $5 per km (b) $15 per km (c) $20 per km (d) $40 per kmTo make an item in-house, equipment costing $250,000 must be purchased. It will have a life of 4 years, annual operating cost of $80,000, and each unit will cost $40 to manufacture. Buying the item externally will cost $100 per unit. At i=15% per year, at what number of units needed per year will it be more economical to produce the item in-house? Using Breakeven Analysis, pls solve the problem
- You work for Bellevue Window Products. While performing an analysis for a new window product, you found a report from last year that provided the following information regarding the manufacture of a similar product: annual production rate = 40,000 units; selling price = $70 per unit; fixed production cost = $240,000 per year; variable production cost = $1,700,000 per year; variable selling expenses = $96,000 per year. As a first-cut, you decide to use this information to estimate (a) the breakeven production rate per year, (b) the company’s profit last year, and(c) the annual production rate that would generate a profit of $1,000,000 per year. What are your estimates? Draw the breakeven diagram and spreadsheet functions necessary to perform the analysisYou work for Bellevue Window Products.

What are your estimates?A jalapeno canning company is faced with a make/ buy decision. Cardboard shipping cartons can be purchased for $0.60 each or made in-house. If manufactured, two machines will be required. Machine X will cost $20,000 and have a life of 6 years with a $2000 salvage value. Machine Y will cost $11,000 and have a life of 4 years with no salvage value. The annual maintenance cost for machines X and Y are $6000 and $5000 per year, respectively. A total of four operators will be required for the two machines at a rate of $22.50 per hour per person. In a normal 8-hour day, the four operators and two machines can produce 1000 cartons. The variable cost per carton associated with the in-house option is closest to: (a) $0.0625 (b) $0.10 (c) $0.72 (d) $0.81
- Oil from a specific type of marine microalgae can be converted into biodiesel that may serve as an alternate transportable fuel for automobiles and trucks. If lined ponds are used to grow the algae, the construction cost is $13 million and the M&O cost is estimated at $2.1 million per year. Alternatively, if long plastic tubes are used for growing the algae, the initial cost will be higher at $18 million, but less contamination will render the M&O cost lower at $0.41 million per year. At an interest rate of 10% per year and a 5-year project period, which system is better—ponds or tubes? Use a present worth analysis.Leroy purchased an AI-based robotics system with the first cost of $345,000, an AOC of $148,000 per year, a $140,000 salvage value, and an ESL of 3 years. Rather than trading after 3 years, he kept the system for a total of 5 years. Due to the wear factor and expense of repairs, its AOC increased to $240,000 per year starting in year 4, plus the salvage value went to zero. At i= 10% per year, what is the percentage increase in the AW of costs that Leroy experienced? The percentage increase in the AW of costs that Leroy experienced is %.An engineer must decide between two ways to pump concrete to the top of a seven-story building. Plan 1 requires the leasing of equipment for $60,000 initially and will cost between $0.40 and $0.95 per metric ton to operate, with a most likely cost of $0.50 per metric ton. The pumper can pump 100 metric tons per 8-hour day. If leased, the asset will have a contract period of 5 years. Plan 2 is a rental option that will cost $19,000 per year. In addition, an extra $15.5 per hour labor cost will be incurred for operating the rented equipment per 8-hour day. Which plan should the engineer recommend if the equipment will be needed for 45 days per year? The MARR is 14% per year. The annual worth of plan 1 lease optimistic is $ . The annual worth of plan 1 most likely is $ . The annual worth of plan 1 pessimistic is $ . The annual worth of plan 2 rental is.

Which plan should the engineer recommend if the equipment will be needed for 90 days per year? The MARR is 12% per year.Two membrane systems are under consideration for treating cooling tower blowdown to reduce its volume. A low-pressure seawater reverse osmosis(SWRO) system will operate at 500 psi and produce 720,000 gallons of permeate per day. It will have a fixed cost of $465 per day and an operatingcost of $485 per day. A higher pressure SWRO system operating at 800 psi will produce 950,000 gallons per day at an operating cost of $1280 perday. The fixed cost of the high pressure SWRO system will be only $328 per day because fewer membranes will be required. How many gallons of blowdown water must require treatment each day for the two systems to break even?A piece of onboard equipment has a first cost of $600,000, an annual cost of $92,000, and a salvage value that decreases to zero by $150,000 each year of the equipment’s maximum useful life of 5 years. Assume the company’s MARR is 10% per year. (a) Determine the ESL by hand. (b) Use a spreadsheet with a graph indicating the capital recovery, AOC, and total AW per year to determine the ESL.
