Can you compute the PW of alternative A, the AW of alternative B, the FW of Alternative C, and the PW of alternative D? Also for a MARR of 12%, rank the MEAs from most profitable to least profitable. HINT: You will need to perform additional calculations before answering this question.
Nowadays it is very important to reduce one's carbon "footprint" (how much carbon we produce in our daily lifestyles). Minimizing the use of fossil fuels and instead resorting to renewable sources of energy (e.g., solar energy) are vital to a "sustainable" lifestyle and a lower carbon footprint. Let's consider solar panels that prewarm the water fed to a conventional home water heater. The solar panels have an installed cost of $2,500, and they reduce the homeowner's energy bill by $426 per year. The residual value of the solar panels is $550 at the end of their 9-year life. What is the annual IRR of this investment? Use the trial-and-error method starting with an initial guess of 13%. (a) The annual IRR of this investment is 10.72%. (Round to two decimal places.) (b) If the homeowner's MARR is 10%, is the investment economical? O A. No B. Yes

The project is to construct a lateral canal that will provide irrigation for 150 ha production area along the ricefields of a town| and it is being considered by the municipality. The locality has two (wet and dry) croppings. A one (1) ha ricefarm yields 90 çavans for rainfed areas. The following costs have been identified. Land: 800 meters long x 6 meters parcel of land at Php 950.00 per ha 4,500,000.00 500,000.00 250,000.00 Construction: Annual O&M (government): Annual O&M (farmer irrigators): Rental receipts from irrigators: 17 çav/ha Convenience to farmers: 500,000.00 Yield increase: 22% Neglecting other factors associated with production yield increase, determine the B/C ratio of the project with a MARR of 10% per year if the project is to be used for 25 years. Is the project acceptable?
