A manufacturing machine is requiring main power motor to be replaced and two motors consider to select one from. Motor A has operation load 15 hp with efficiency 60%, while motor B has 10 hp with 75% efficiency. The cost of installation for motor A is $2,410 and its market value is $80 after a useful life of 8 years, and $4,820 is the installation cost for motor B with no market value. Assume MARR is 12%, and the cost of electricity is $0.06/kWh in the facility location. After installing the selected motor, it is expected to operate 2,000 hours per year. T1
