Economics URGENT PLEASE** As a PMO officer, you are asked to do an evaluation for a natural gas pipeline right in the middle of the project’s planned schedule. There are concerns that it will go over budget and schedule because 40 million dollars has been spent in the project so far. According to the project charter, the pipeline length is 72 km and must be completed in 6 months, with a budget of 57.6 million AUD. You performed an inspection and find out that installation of 30 km of pipeline has been completed. Using earned value analysis, answer the following questions: A) What is the earned value (EV) for this project at the time of inspection (month 3)? B) What is the planned value (PV) for this project at the time of inspection? C) Calculate the Schedule variance (SV) and the cost variance (CV) at month 4. What do they mean? D) Calculate the Schedule performance index (SPI) and the cost performance index (CPI) at the time of inspection. What do they mean? [ E) According to your…

SITUATION3: Under the data collected from the office of Department of Transportation and DPWH over the last 5 years indicate that for each fatality, there are 40 non-fatal injury accidents ($1500 present cost each) and 300 property damage accidents ($2000 present cost each). What is the breakeven value of statistical Me (VSL) needed to justify a highway project if i is 8%? The death rate on a particular three-lane road is 8 per 100 million vehicle-miles. Adding a lane would reduce this to 5 per million, and other accidents would cost $1.5M per mile to build, and annual maintenance would be 3% of the first cost. Assume that the lane would last 40 years. The road carries 10000 vehicle per day. Use reduction factor of 3/8 for all accidents. (Non-CE students no need to answer this item).
Subject: Engineering Economics An earth compactor costs Rs. 2,00,000 and has an economic life of 9 years. However, the purchaser needs it for only one project that will be completed in 3 years. At the end of the project, it can be sold for one-half its purchase price. What is the annual cost to the owner, if the required rate of return is 12 percent.

You own a family farm, worth $500,000, and need to decide what to do with this year’s earnings of $400,000. (i) You could put the money in the bank and earn a safe 5% return. (ii) Or you could pay $200,000 to plant a new crop, which will yield a harvest in six months; if there is rain, the harvest will bring in $1.000,000 in revenues, but if there is a drought it will yield just $100,000 in revenues. (iii) A third alternative is to plant Santo drought-resistant seed corn, which will cost $500,000, but yield revenues of $1,000,000 if there is rain or $700,000 if there is no rain. You are risk averse, and your reference for family wealth (W) is given by U(W) = √W [Square root of W]. The probability of a summer drought is 0.33. Which of the three options should you choose? Explain.
