### Question 1: Using AW Method to Compare Alternatives**Instructions:** Compare the following alternatives using the Annual Worth (AW) method.| Alt. | F.C. | Operating and Maintenance | Income at the End of 2nd Year | Annual Income | S.V. | Useful Life | i ||------|--------|---------------------------|-------------------------------|---------------|-------|-------------|----|| A | 35000 | 0 | 3500 | 2800 | 7000 | 8 | 8% || B | 32000 | 1500 | 4700 | 2500 | 0 | ∞ | 8% |**Explanation:**- **F.C.**: Fixed Cost for the alternative.- **Operating and Maintenance**: Cost associated with operating and maintaining the alternative.- **Income at the End of 2nd Year**: Expected income generated at the end of the second year.- **Annual Income**: Regular income generated annually.- **S.V. (Salvage Value)**: Value at the end of the useful life span.- **Useful Life**: Duration the alternative is expected to be in use.- **i**: Interest rate.This table presents data for evaluating two alternatives, A and B, to determine which option may be more financially advantageous over its useful life using an interest rate of 8%.

here we calculate the Annual worth of the both alternatives and compare the both which one of the…

6-4 A An electronics firm invested $60,000 in a precision inspection device. It cost $4000 to operate and main- tain in the first year and $3000 in each later year. At the end of 4 years, the firm changed their inspec- tion procedure, eliminating the need for the device. The purchasing agent was very fortunate to sell the inspection device for $60,000, the original price. Compute the equivalent uniform annual cost during the 4 years the device was used. Assume interest at 10% per year.
