The town of Melville needs to obtain an additional supply of water from a nearby river. They have been offered two options: diverting water at a point 8 miles upstream and allowing gravity to move the water to the town (the "gravity" plan), or diverting water at a point much closer to the town and using pumps to move the water to the town (the "pumping" plan). The pumping plan would be built in two stages, with half of its capacity installed initially and the other half installed ten years later. For both options, the town wants to use a 40-year life, 10% interest, and no salvage value. The projected costs are in the table below: Initial Cost Additional investment at the end of the 10th year Annual Operation and Maintenance, excluding Power Annual Power Cost Gravity $2,800,000 None $10,000 $25,000 $75,000 Use an Annual Worth analysis to determine the most economical plan for the town. Pumping None $1,400,000 $200,000
In a developing country, two alternatives are under consideration for delivering water from a mountainous area to an arid area in the country’s southern region. A coated heavy-gauge plastic pipeline can be installed,with pumps spaced appropriately along the pipeline. Alternatively, a canal can be built; however, it will have greater water loss than the pipeline, due to evaporation and poaching along the canal route. To compensate for the water loss, the canal will have a greater carrying capacity than the pipeline. It is estimated it will cost $125 million to install the pipeline. Major replacements are planned every 15 years at a cost of $10 million. Pumping and other annual operating and maintenance costs are estimated to be $5million. The canal will cost $200 million to construct; its annual operating and maintenance costs are anticipated to be $1 million. Major upgrades of the canal are anticipated every 10 years, at a cost of $5 million. Based on a five percent MARR and an…

A consulting engineer is considering two methods for lining landfill for municipal solid waste management in Bannock County, Idaho. A geosynthetic bentonite clay liner (GCL) will cost $2.0 million to install, and if it is renovated after 4 years at a cost of $400,000, its life can be extended another 2 years. Alternatively, a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane can be installed that will have a useful life of 12 years. At an interest rate of 6% per year, how much money can be spent on the HDPE liner for the two methods to break even?
A remotely located air sampling station can be powered by solar cells or by running an above ground electric line to the site and using conventional power. Solar cells will cost RM 15,000 to install and will have a useful life of 5 years with no salvage value. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, maintenance and part replacement are expected to be RM 4,000. A new power line will cost RM 40,000 to install, with power costs expected to be RM 1,000 per year. Since the air sampling project will end in 10 years,the salvage value of the line is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 6% per year compounded monthly,(i) Calculate the effective interest rate per year(ii) Determine which alternative should be selected on the basis of an present worth analysis(iii) Determine the initial cost of the above ground line to make the two alternatives equally attractive economically
Water supply for an irrigation system can be obtained from a stream in some nearby mountains. Two alternatives are being considered, both of which have essentially infinite lives, provided proper maintenance is performed. The first is a concrete reservioir with a steel pipe system and the second is an earthen dam with a wooden aqueduct. Below are the costs associated with each. Compare the present worths of the two alternatives, using an interest rate of 8%. Which alternative should be chosen {Perform all calculations using 5 significant figures and round any monetary answers to the nearest dollar}? Concrete Reservoir 550,000 2,250 N/A First Cost [dollars] Annual Maintenance Costs [dollars] Replacing the wood portion of the aqueduct each 15 years The cost Concrete Reservoir is (in PW dollars): Earthen Dam 230,000 15,000 120,000 Number The cost of the Earthen Dam plus Aqueduct is (in PW dollars): Number Which alternative should be chosen (enter either 'Reservoir' or 'Dam'?
The Logan Well Services Group is considering two sites for storage and recovery of reclaimed water. The mountain site (MS) will use injection wells that cost $4.2 million to develop and $280,000 per year for M&O. This site will be able to accommodate 150 million gallons per year. The valley site (VS) will involve recharge basins that cost $11 million to construct and $400,000 per year to operate and maintain. At this site, 720 million gallons can be injected each year. If the value of the injected water is $3.00 per thousand gallons, which alternative, if either, should be selected according to the B/C ratio method? Use an interest rate of 8% per year and a 20-year study period. The B/C ratio is . Select alternative (Click to select) neither of the alternatives mountain site valley site .
The Camino Real Landfill was required to install a plastic liner to prevent leachate from migrating into the groundwater. The fill area was 50,000 m2 and the installed liner cost was $8 per m2. In order to recover the investment, the owner charges to unload at the rates of $10 per pick-up, $25 per dumptruck, and $70 per compactor-truck load. The fill area is adequate for 4 years. If the annual traffic is estimated to be 2500 pick-up loads, 650 dumptruck loads, and 1200 compactor-truck loads, what rate of return will the landfill owner make on the investment?
The Highridge Water District needs an additional supply of water from Steep Creek. The engineer has selected two plans for comparison: Gravity plan: Divert water at a point 10 miles up Steep Creek and carry it through a pipeline by gravity. Pumping plan: Divert water at a point near the district and pump it through 2 miles of pipeline. The pumping plant can be built in two stages: half now and half 10 years later Annual benefits are $190,00 for both plans. Use a 35-year analysis period and 6% interest. Salvage values can be ignored. Use the conventional benefit–cost ratio method to select the more economical plan.
A new storm drainage system must be constructed right away to reduce periodic flooding that occurs in a city that is in a valley. Five mutually exclusive designs have been proposed, and their present worth (in thousands of dollars) of costs and benefits are the following. a. Which system has the greatest B-C ratio? b. Which system has the largest incremental B-C ratio (based on differences between alternatives)? c. Which system should be chosen? System 1 2 3 4 5 PW of $800 $5,000 $5,000 $12,000 $11,000 costs PW of 6,000 14,000 6,000 22,000 18,000 benefits a. System v has the greatest B-C ratio, which is (Round to two decimal places.)
A large land-grant university that is currently facing severe parking problems on its campus is considering constructing parking decks off campus. A shuttle service could pick up students at the off campus parking deck and transport them to various locations on campus. The university would charge a small fee for each shuttle ride, and the students could be quickly and economically transported to their classes. The funds raised by the shuttle would be used to pay for trolleys, which cost about $170,000 each. Each trolley has a 12-year service life, with an estimated salvage value of $12,000. To operate each trolley, additional expenses will be incurred, as given in the table below. If students pay 10 cents for each ride, determine the annual ridership per trolley (number of shuttle rides per year) required to justify the shuttle project, assuming an interest rate of 6%.

The Camino Real Landfill was required to install a plastic liner to prevent leachate from migrating into the groundwater. The fill area was 47,000 m² and the installed liner cost was $8 per m2. In order to recover the investment, the owner charges to unload at the rates of $17 per pickup, $25 per dump truck, and $70 per compactor truck load. The fill area is adequate for 4 years. If the annual traffic is estimated to be 2500 pickup loads, 650 dump-truck loads, and 1200 compactor-truck loads, what rate of return will the landfill owner make on the investment? The rate of return that will be made by the landfill owner is % per year.
