The Cebu City plans to increase the capacity of her existing water transmission lines. Two plans are under consideration. Plan A requires the construction of a parallel pipeline, the flow being maintained by gravity. The initial cost is P197342811 and the life is 40 years, with an annual operating cost of P8450154 for the 1st 20 years and P13297046 for the next 20 years. Plan B requires the construction of a booster pumping station costing P100M with the life of 40 years. The pumping equipment cost an additional amount of P25M, it has a life of 20 years and a salvage value of P2M. The annual operating cost is P5M. Using the Present Value (PV) Method and an interest of 21% cpd. annually, what is the PV CDI

A company is considering constructing a plant to manufacture a proposed new product. The land costs P5,000,000, the building costs P30,000,000, theequipment costs P5,000,000, and P60,000,000 additional working capital isrequired. It is expected that the product will result in sales of P20,000,000 per year for 10 years, at which time the land can be sold for P13,000,000, the building for P18,000,000, and the equipment for P1,500,000. All of the working capital would be recovered at the EOY 10. The annual expenses for labor, materials, and all other items are estimated to total P18,000,000. If the company requires a MARR of 15% per year on projects of comparable risk, determine if it should invest in the new product line. Using: a. ) Use the Present Worth Method b. ) ) Use the Future Worth Method
The expansion plan of a business firm requires the purchase of a parcel of land on which to build a structure, which they will need 5 years hence. The current costs are land, P1,000,000; building P3,500,000. Since these are not needed immediately, the firm plans to defer the purchase of the land and the construction of the building until they are needed. If the value of the land and the cost of the building are expected to appreciate at the rates of 20% and 8% per annum, respectively, what will be the total cost of the land and structure 5 years hence?
Combined-cycle power plants use two combustion turbines to produceelectricity. Heat from the first turbine’s exhaust is captured to heatwater and produce steam sent to a second steam turbine thatgenerates additional electricity. A 968-megawatt combined-cycle gasfired plant can be purchased for P450 million, has no salvage value,and produces a net cash flow (revenues less expenses) of P50 millionper year over its expected 30-year life.a. If the hurdle rate (MARR) is 14% per year, how profitable aninvestment is this power plant?b. What is the simple payback period for the plant? Is this investmentacceptable?
A company in Batangas is planning to buy a new gantry crane that has a capacity of 50 tons. In the market, there are four available cranes offered by different well-known companies. The first equipment is a portable/mobile gantry crane with a cost of P2,400,000 and an installation cost of P50,000. During its life of 5 years, the cost of power and labor is P130,000 and P280,000 respectively. Maintenance should be followed as well and must be done on its scheduled program. The cost of maintenance per year is P116,000. The second equipment is a double girder gantry crane with a cost of P3,000,000 and an installation cost of P40,000. During its life of 5 years. the cost of power and labor is P136,000 and P190,000 respectively. The cost of maintenance per year is P93.000. The third equipment is an electric trolley gantry crane with a cost of P4.960,000 and an installation cost of P55,000. During its life of 5 years, the cost of power and labor is P240,000 and P130,000 respectively. The cost…

A plant to provide the company’s present needs can be constructed for P2,800,000 with annual operating disbursements of P600,000. It is expected that at the end of 5 years the production requirements could be doubled, which will necessitate the addition of an extension costing P2,400,000. The disbursement after 5 years will likewise double. A plan to provide the entire expected capacity can be constructed for P4,000,000 and its operating disbursement will be P640,000 when operating on half capacity (for the first 5 years) and P900,000 on full capacity. The plants are predicted to have indeterminately long life. The required rate of return is 20%. What would you recommend? Use Present Worth Cost MethodShow complete manual solution
Two laser machines (A & B) used in a project and are being compared to choose one of them, for a medical center specialized in eye's treatments. The price of machine A is 1,200,000 Usdand requires an annual maintenance of 100,000 Usd, while the price of machine B is 1,000,000Dhs and requires an annual maintenance of 120,000 Usd. The expected life time for bothmachines is 8 years after which the two machines salvage values will be 150,000 Usd formachine A and 125,000 Usd for machine B. The MARR decided by the medical centeradministration is 9% per year. So tell the future calculated worth analysis to decide whuch a or b will be good to be purchased?

Recently, an Internet service provider (ISP) in the UK implemented a “no-strings US-style flat-rateplan” whereby its commercial subscribers can send and receive unlimited volume (measured ingigabytes) up to a cap of 10,000 gigabytes (per month) via their broadband Internet service for aflat monthly fee of £399.99. Under the old “metered plan,” Alistair Willoughby Cook sent andreceived a grand total of 3,500 gigabytes over their broadband connection and paid £399.99 inusage fees in a typical 30-day month.If all customers are exactly like Alistair, what is the impact of the flat-rate plan on consumerwelfare and the company’s profits? Explain.
You bought a new car which you intend to use as a public utility vehicle for P950,000. The expected life of the car is ten (10) years for its intended use. Your driver and you agreed that for the first five (5) years , your “boundary” is P1,500.00 per day and P1,000.00 per day for the rest of its economic life. You also expected a repair and maintenance costs of P30,000 every six (6) months from year one (1) to five (5) and P50,000 from year six (6) to ten (10). At the end of 10 years you can sell the car for P100,000. If your MARR on invested capital is 15% every (6) months, determine whether this is a good investment. Use the Anual Worth method in your solution. Indicate all other assumptions you use in your analysis.Use manually solve and don't use excel.

Parker County Community College (PCCC) is trying to determine whether to use no insulation or to use insulation that is either 1 inch thick or 2 inches thick on its steam pipes. The heat loss from the pipes without insulation is expected to cost $1.50 per year per foot of pipe. A 1-inch thick insulated covering will eliminate 89% of the loss and will cost $0.40 per foot. A 2-inch thick insulated covering will eliminate 92% of the loss and will cost $0.85 per foot. PCCC Physical Plant Services estimates that there are 250,000 feet of steam pipe on campus. The PCCC Accounting Office requires a 10%/year return to justify capital expenditures. The insulation has a life expectancy of 10 years. Determine which insulation (if any) should be purchased using annual worth analysis.
