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.
Three mutually exclusive project alternatives are being evaluated. The estimated cash flows for each alternative are shown below. The MARR is 15% per year. A decision maker can select one of these alternatives or decide to select none of them. Make a recomendation using the annual worth analysis.

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.
A truck can be purchased for $55,000. Annual O&M costs are expected to increase by $1,800 every year, with a 1st-year O&M cost of $4,000. (MARR = 26% and the planning horizon is 10 years) • The compressor salvage value for a given period t is calculated based on the following equation: Salvage value (t) = $30,000– $3,000 * t a) Find the Optimum Replacement Interval for this Equipment b) Find the Optimum Replacement Interval for this Equipment if the O&M costs are decreased to $1,700/yr. What is your conclusion? c) Find the Optimum Replacement Interval for this Equipment if the initial cost is reduced to $52,000. What is your conclusion? (independent of part b)
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.
The initial cost of Project X is $200,000 and its annual generated income is $49,000. The initial cost of a Project Y is $450,000 and the annual generated income is $117,000. If the service life is 8 years, what is the incremental internal rate of return? A value between 20% and 21% A value between 23% and 24% A value between 22% and 23% A value between 21% and 22%
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.
Average Rate of Return Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of $517,500 over six years, has a cost of $593,400, and has a $96,600 residual value. Round to the nearest whole number.
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.
