2. An asset purchased 2 years ago for P40,000 is harder to maintain than expected. It can be sold now for P12,000 or kept for a maximum of 2 more years, in which case its operating cost will beP20,000 each year, with a salvage value of P10,000 after 1 year or P9000 after two. A suitable challenger will have an annual worth of P24,000 per year. At an interest rate of 10% per year and over a study period of exactly 2 years, determine when the defender should be replaced.

A contractor is considering the following two alternatives: Purchase a new computer system for $45,000. The system is expected to last 6 years with a salvage value of $7,000. Lease a new computer system for $9,000 per year, payable in advance (at the start of the year). The system should last for 6 years. If a MARR of 6% is used, which alternative should be selected using a net present worth analysis? Which alternative would you select using an annualized cost method of analysis?
Assume that a company Is considering purchasing a new plece of equlpment for $240,000 that would have a useful life of 10 years and no salvage value. The new equipment would cost $20,000 per year to operate and it would replace an old plece of equipment that costs $53,000 per year to operate. The old equipment currently belng used could be sold for a salvage value of $40,000. The simple rate of return for the new equipment is closest to: Multiple Cholce 4.50%. 7.55%. 12.00%. 20.00%.
To increase production, an engineer is considering the purchase of a new machine. The machine costs P350 000.00 and will have a salvage value of P10 000.00 at the end of eight years. Operating and maintenance cost is expected to be P4000.00 per year. With this machine. Annual revenue is expected to increase by P85 000.00. Using future worth analysis and a 15% rate of return, determine if the purchase should be recommended. (Ans. FT = P51 214.34 )-PLEASE USE AN ACTUAL FORMULA NOT AN EXCEL
. A new engine will cost P12,000 with an estimated life of 15 years and a salvage value of P800 and guaranteed to have an operating cost of P3500 per year. The new engine is considered as a replacement of the old one. The old engine had a total annual cost of P5,200 to operate. Determine the rate of return of the new investment using 6% sinking fund to recover depreciation, if the old engine could be sold now for P2000.
Bark Company is considering buying a machine for $240,000 with an estimated life of ten years and no salvage value. The straight-line method of depreciation will be used.

Purchasing a new boiler machine will cost $90,000 and acquiring this machine can lessen the current electricity consumption by as much as twenty percent. The estimated annual maintenance cost for a new boiler machine is 5% of its price. Current annual electricity bill is $180,000. If there will be no salvage value at the end of 6 years and Company A sets MARR = 12% per year, would it be worthwhile to invest in this new machine? Use FW to evaluate this investment.
You are considering purchasing a new injection molding machine.

To expect a 15%rate of return on investment, what would be the maximum amount that should bespent on purchasing the injection molding machine?(a) $301,126 (b) $234,645(c) $600,000 (d) $126,450
Dauten is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of 8,000, an estimated useful life of 6 years, and an estimated salvage value of 800. The replacement machine is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation at the time of purchase- The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by 1,000 per year; even so, the new machines much greater efficiency would cause operating expenses to decline by 1,500 per year The new machine would require that inventories be increased by 2,000, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by 500. Dautens marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%, and its WACC is 11%. Should it replace the old machine?
