Two roadway design are under consideration. Design 1A will cost $3 million to build and $100,000 per year to maintain. Design 1B will cost $3.5 million to build and $40,000 per year to maintain. Both designs are assumed to be permanent. Use an AW based rate of return equation to determine (a) the breakeven ROR, and (b) which design is preferred at a MARR of 10% per year

Average Rate of Return Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of $665,820 over six years, has a cost of $731,600, and has a $90,400 residual value. Round to the nearest whole number.
Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of $220,800 over 4 years, cost $419,000, and has a $41,000 residual value.
An elective project is currently under review. It requires an initial investment of $116,000 for equipment. The profit is expected to be $28,000 each year, over the 6-year project period. The salvage value of the equipment at the end of the project period is projected to be $22,000. Assume a MARR of 10%. Find an IRR for this project.
Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of $484,440 over 4 years, costs $668,000, and has a $66,000 residual value.
Project A requires a $315,000 initial investment for new machinery with a five-year life and a salvage value of $35,500. Project A is expected to yield annual income of $23,900 per year and net cash flow of $78,750 per year for the next five years.Compute Project A’s accounting rate of return. *please help correct the answer
Replacing old equipment at an immediate cost of $50,000 and an additional outlay of $15,000 six years from now will result in savings of $11,000 per year for 7 years. The required rate of return is 5% compounded annually. Compute the net present value and determine if the investment should be accepted or rejected according to the net present value criterion. The net present value of the project is S (Round the final answer to the nearest dollar as needed. Round all intermediate values to six decimal places as needed.) The proposal should be аcсepted. rejected.
Compare the Annual Worth of the two systems and identify the better option at MARR = 10% per year: Solar: First cost $1,500,000; AOC $-700,000; Salvage value $100,000; Life of 8 years Geothermal: First cost $2,250,000; AOC $-600,000; Salvage value $50,000; Life of 8 years Select the Geothermal System with a calculated AW of $-1,017,368 Select the Geothermal System with a calculated AW of $-727,591 Select the Solar System with a calculated AW of $-1,238, Select the Solar System with a calculated AW of $-972,416
Average Rate of Return Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of $467,480 over four years, has a cost of $725,400, and has a $80,600 residual value. Round to the nearest whole number.
A project with a life of 10 has an initial fixed asset investment of $25,620, an initial NWC investment of $2,440, and an annual OCF of −$39,040. The fixed asset is fully depreciated over the life of the project and has no salvage value. If the required return is 10 percent, what is the project's equivalent annual cost, or EAC?

The conventional B/C ratio for a flood control project along the Mississippi River was calculated to be 1.3. The benefits were $500,000 per year and the maintenance costs were $200,000 per year. What was the initial cost of the project if a discount rate of 7% per year was used and the project was assumed to have a 50-year life?
