Three alternatives are being considered for an air cleaning system. All three systems have a lifeof 10 years with no salvage value. System A has an initial cost of $29,000. During the first fiveyears of operation, the annual costs to operate system A are $5,000. During the second five years,the annual cost of system A increases to $16,000. System B has an initial cost of $43,000. Theannual cost to operate system B is $4,000, however, after the first year, this cost increases by$1,600 per year. System C has an initial cost of $58,000 with an annual cost of $2,400. System Crequires two upgrades: one during year 4 which costs $6,000, and the other during year 8 whichcosts $3,000. The MARR for this project is 17%. Determine which air cleaning system should beinstalled based on an economic analysis.

Problem- Cargo ships can cause a lot of air pollution.Solution- to use nuclear powered ships since they hold a lot of energy and can travel for long distances. How it will work is that it will need a nuclear reactor at the bottom of the boat to heat up the water and then turn it to electricity to power the boat. The boat will be made out of graphene which is a tough material to avoid any leaks in the boat. It will also contain many control rods because nuclear power is so powerful that it can create to much energy to handle. With control rods, you can slow down this process and keep it in a controlled manner. Since cargo ships are already is the ocean, there will be no need for any extra materials to make it work.
-Do you think this will work? Why/Why not?
-What do you think is wrong with it/ How can this be improved?
Please send this to someone else I need to record 50 responses for a science project.
Thank you!
