The city of St. John's is intalling a new swimming pool in the east end recreation centre. One design being considered is a reinforced concrete pool that will cost $5,400,000 to install. Thereafter, the inner surface of the pool will need to be refinished and painted every 5 years at a cost of $440,000 per refinishing. Assuming that the pool will have essentially an infinite life, what is the present worth of the costs associated with the pool design? The city uses a MARR of 10%. If the installation costs, refinishing costs, and MARR are subject to 5% or 10% increases or decreases, how is the present worth affected? (NOTE: Text answers are case sensitive and every field in this question is worth equal value) All calculations are performed using 4 significant figures. (a) Complete the table below:

Littrell's Nursery needs a new irrigation system. System one will cost $145,000, have annual maintenance costs of $10,000, and need an overhaul at the end of year six costing $30,000. System two will have first year maintenance costs of $5,000 with increases of $500 each year thereafter. System two would not require an overhaul. Both systems will have no salvage value after 12 years. If Littrell's cost of capital is 4%, using annual worth analysis determine the maximum Littrell's should be willing to pay for system two.
Galvanized Products is considering the purchase of a new computer system for their enterprise data management system. The vendor has quoted a purchase price of $100,000. Galvanized Products is planning to borrow 1/4th of the purchase price from a bank at 15% compounded annually. The loan is to be repaid using equal annual payments over a 3-year period. The computer system is expected to last 5 years and has a salvage value of $5,000 at that time. Over the 5-year period, Galvanized Products expects to pay a technician $25,000 per year to maintain the system but will save $55,000 per year through increased efficiencies. Galvanized Products uses a MARR of 18%/year to evaluate investments. what is the annual worth of the investment?
