Process X Is estimated to have a fixed cost of $32,500 per year and a varlable cost of $60 per unit in year 1, decreasing by $5 per unit per year thereafter. Process Y will have a fixed cost of $69,000 per year and a varlable cost of $10 per unit in year 1, Increasing by $1 per unit per year thereafter. At an interest rate of 12% per year, how many units must be produced in year 7 for the two processes to break even? The number of units that must be produced is determined to be 1065

The State of Chiapas, Mexico, decided to fund a program for improving reading skills in elementary school students. The first cost is $275,000 now and an update amount of $180,000 every 6 years forever. Determine the perpetual equivalent annual cost at an interest rate of 9% per year. The perpetual equivalent annual cost is determined to be -$
The operating cost for a machine is $40,000 for year 1 and then it increases by $5,000per year through year 10. The equivalent uniform annual cost for the machine (years 1-10) at an interest rate of 9% per year is calculated as:

Neighboring parishes in Louisiana have agreed to pool road tax resources already designated for bridge refurbishment. At a recent meeting, the engineers estimated that a total of $500,000 will be deposited at the end of next year into an account for the repair of old and safety-questionable bridges throughout the area. Further, they estimate that the deposits will increase by $100,000 per year for only 9 years thereafter, then cease. Determine the equivalent (a) present worth and (b) annual series amounts, if public funds earn at a rate of 5% per year. Draw the cash flow diagram and show complete solution. Make it clear ty
