Restoring balance to the nitrogen cycle is one of the challenges facing engineers. Improving the effectiveness and economical use of fertilizer has been identified as an important step in the right direction. Engineers have designed an improved way to transport fertilizer and then to apply it directly at the point where crops are grown. Further development, assessment, and optimization of the necessary equipment is estimated to require $235,000 in year 1, increasing by a gradient of $65,000 in each of years 2, 3, and 4. Then, it will begin to decrease by $75,000 in years 5, 6, 7, and 8. Interest is 14% per year.
In 2016, the city of Abu Dhabi collected $24 million in fines from motorists because of traffic violations caught by red-light cameras. The cost of operating the system was $14.5 million. The net profit, that is, profit after operating costs, is split equally (that is, 50% each) between the city and the operator of the camera system. What will be the rate of return over a 3-year period to the contractor that paid for, installed, and operates the system, if its initial cost was $10 million and the profit for each of the 3 years is the same as it was in 2016? Should the company invest in this project at MARR of 15% per year?
