An engineer is considering two different liners for an evaporation pond that will receive salty concentrate from a brackish water desalting plant. A plastic liner will cost $0.90 per square foot and will have to be replaced in 20 years when precipitated solids have to be removed from the pond using heavy equipment. A rubberized elastomeric liner is tougher and, therefore, is expected to last 30 years, but it will cost $2.20 per square foot. The pond covers 110 acres (1 acre = 43,560 square feet). Which liner is more cost effective on the basis of an annual worth analysis at an interest rate of 8% per year? Solve using (a) tabulated factors, and (b) a calculator.
