Little Rhody Manufacturing needs to purchase a new central air-conditioning system for a plant. There are two choices. The first system costs $70,000 and is expected to last 6 years, and the second system costs $102,000 and is expected to last 9 years. Assume that the opportunity cost of capital is 12 percent. Which air-conditioning system should you purchase? Show your work. Hint: There are two ways to solve this. The hard way: Use formula for EAC The easy way: TMV exercise and solve for PMT assuming annual P/Y. Whichever has the lower PMT, go with that system. PV = cost. FV = 0, I/Y = 12%, N = Number of years. P/Y = 1
Fantastic Footwear can invest in one of two different automated clicker cutters. The first, A, has a $99,000 first cost. A similar one with many extra features, B, has a $390,000 first cost. A will save $50 000 per year over the cutter currently in use. B will save $150 000 per year. Each clicker cutter will last five years. If the MARR is 10 percent, which alternative is better? Use an IRR comparison. Question 4 options: Project A where IRR > MARR Project B where IRR > MARR Project A where IRR < MARR Project B where IRR < MARR
