![We plan to compare economically two design alternatives (A and B) for a new ride
(the Scream Machine) at a theme park. Alternative A required a $300,000
investment, produced after-tax net annual revenue of $55,000, and had a negligible
salvage value at the end of the 10-year planning horizon. Alternative B required a
$450,000 investment, generated after-tax net annual revenue of $80,000, and also
had a negligible salvage value at the end of the 10-year planning horizon. Based on
an after-tax MARR of 10% and using a future worth analysis, which alternative, is the
economic choice?
a) The do-nothing alternative will be selected.
O b) Alternative A and Future value will be calculated as follows:
FWA =-$300,000(F/P, 10%,10)+$55,000(F/A, 10%,10)=-
$300,000(2.59374)+$55,000(15.93742)=$98,436.10
c) None of the above
d) Alternative B and Future value will be calculated as follows:
