Bob is considering buying a new farming tractor for his farm. He has a choice between a John-Deere-XP tractor and a Sunflower-FT tractor. Bob has a MARR of 6%. John-Deere-XP: First Cost: $150,000. Life: 10 years, zero salvage value at the end of 10 years. Annual Expense (maintenance, charging, etc.): $3,000. Sunflower-FT First Cost: $200,000. Life: 15 years, zero salvage value at the end of 15 years. Annual Expense (maintenance, charging, etc.): $3,500. For a 10-year study period, what salvage value for the extra 5 years of life for Sunflower-FT would result in that both tractors are equivalent in Present Worth? $96,133.6 $87,734.1 $105.266,

Assignment Scenario:Jerry wants to buy an assisted Living Facility in his home town. Currently, the facility makes a profit each year of $10,000. However, the current director mentioned that if Jerry and his company wanted to perform a remodeling on the facility, that he could increase the room rates and make a profit of $40,000 annually. The facility is currently listed for sale for $650,000. However, a local real estate agent for long-term care facilities explained to Jerry that the likelihood of keeping at full capacity after raising the room rates is 70%. Round your answers to the nearest 10th of a decimal ( 14.42659 = 14.4)1. Calculate the Return on Investment (ROI) if the remodel is not done within the first year, we will call this, scenario 1.2. Calculate the ROI for the second scenario, if we are able to remodel and charge more for rooms.3. Calculate the Expected Value of both scenarios. REMEMBER, the likelihood is 70% and the chance it will not happen is 30%.
Oliver Douglas decides to install a fuel storage system for his farm that will save him an estimated 6.5 cents/gallon on his fuel cost. Initial cost of the system is $10,000, and the annual maintenance is $25 the first year, increasing by $25 each year thereafter. After a period of 10 years the estimated salvage is $3000. If money is worth 12%, what is the breakeven quantity of fuel?

You just inherited a huge mango garden. It opens followingtwo choices. Choice (1): Farm for mango yourself and produce mango juice. You MI invest 300,000BDT to set it up. But at every year end you will earn 600,000BDT (after deduction of all the taxes etc..) for the next 5 years. Choice (2): Lease out the garden to a company. It pays you 800,000BDT at the beginning of each year for 3 years. But after that due to hyper production over natural limits your trees will go barren for the next 2 years and production will become negligible. Assume that yearly inflation rate is 5%. Calculate and decide which option you should choose.
