You purchased a building five years ago for $200,000. Its annual maintenance expense has been $15,000 per year. At the end of three years, you spent $55,000 on roof repairs. At the end of five years (now), you sell the building for $250,000. During the period of ownership, you rented out the building for $60,000 per year paid at the beginning of each year. If your MARR is 8% per year. a) Use the PW and AW methods to evaluate this investment. b) Calculate IRR and ERR(( E=MARR). (Upload the picture of your complete solutions including the correct cash flow diagram and your conclusion.)

The Ford Motor Company has re-designed its best selling truck by substituting aluminum for steel in many key body parts. This saves 600 pounds of weight and decreases gas consumption. The fuel consumption will be 27 miles per gallon (mpg), up from 24 mpg of the previous year's model. Ford will increase the sticker price of the re-designed vehicle by $470. Assume this vehicle will be driven 16,000 miles per year and its life will be 9 years. The owner's MARR is 8% per year and gasoline costs $3.02 per gallon. What is the present worth of the incremental capital outlay for the lighter truck? Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when the MARR is 8% per year. The present worth of the incremental capital outlay for the lighter truck is $ (Round to the nearest dollar.)
Nadine Chelesvig has patented her invention. She is offering a potential manufacturer two contracts for the exclusive right to manufacture and market her product. Plan A calls for an immediate single lump sum payment to her of $175,000. Plan B calls for an annual payment of $14,000 plus a royalty of $3.90 per unit sold. The remaining life of the patent is 10 years. Nadine uses a MARR of 10%/year. What must be the uniform annual sales volume of the product for Nadine to be indifferent between the contracts, based on an units annual worth analysis? Carry all interim calculations to 5 decimal places and then round your final answer to the nearest unit. The tolerance is ±10.
An integrated, combined cycle power plant produces 280 MW of electricity by gasifying coal. The capital investment for the plant is $690 million, spread evenly over two years. The operating life of the plant is expected to be 17 years. Additionally, the plant will operate at full capacity 78% of the time (downtime is 22% of any given year). The MARR is 5% per year. a. If this plant will make a profit of three cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity sold to the power grid, what is the simple payback period of the plant? Is it a low-risk venture? b. What is the IRR for the plant? Is it profitable? O
Waller County is planning to construct a Dam some tens of miles away from the Hempstead Recreation center to facilitate fishing in the El Manny River Basin and Power Generation. The first cost for the Dam will amount to $6,500,000. Annual maintenance and repairs will amount to $24,000 for the first four years, to $28,000 for each year in the next eight years, and to $32,000 per year for the next four years. At the end of the 16th year, $25,000 is estimated to be deposited into Waller county account as tax credits earned for its environmental compliance in the construction and operation of the Dam. In addition a major overhaul costing $650,000 will be required at the end of the seventh year. Use an interest rate of 10% and : a) Determine the engineering economy symbols and their value for each option. b) Construct the cash flow diagram c) Calculate the Capital Recovery for the project

Your firm is thinking about investing $300,000 in the overhaul of a manufacturing cell in a lean environment. Revenues are expected to be $39,000 in year one and then increasing by $13,000 more each year thereafter, Relevant expenses will be $20,000 in year one and will increase by $10,000 per year until the end of the cell's nine-year life. Salvage recovery at the end of year nine is estimated to be $10,000. What is the annual equivalent worth of the manufacturing cell if the MARR is 10% per year? How sensitive is the annual worth to ± 10% changes in the MARR? Are changes in the MARR really a significant consideration in this problem?
