You purchased a building five years ago for $100,000. Its annual maintenance expense has been $5,000 per year. At the end of five years, you sold the building for $80,000. During the period of ownership, you rented out the building for $10,000 per year at the beginning of each year. Evaluate this investment when MARR is 8% per year.
The payback period is,
a.
4 years
b.
5 years
c.
2 years
d.
3 years
The International Parcel Service has installed a new radio frequency identification system to help reduce the number of packages that are incorrectly delivered. The capital investment in the system is $65,000, and the projected annual savings are tabled below. The system’s market value at the EOY five is negligible, and the MARR is 18% per year. Calculate the payback period of the project.
The Kasibu Cooperative has invested a 145,000 new mechanical grading/sorter
system which is projected to improve throughput and increase revenue by 14,000
per year for five years. The estimated market value of the sorter system at the end
of five years is 5,000. Using the FW method at a MARR of 12%, is this a good
investment?

- To remedy the traffic situation at a busy intersection in Quezon City, two plans are being considered. Plan A is to build a cloverleaf costing P 9,200,000 which would provide all the needs during the next 30 years.
