A government has decided to build a bridge. that initial cost is estimated to be 60,000,000. the annual maintenance is estimated to be 4,000,000. every ten years a minor upgrade will be needed costing 20,000,000. every 20 years a major repair and refurbishment will be 40,000,000. If the bridge is expected to last indefinitely and effective I = 6% per year what is the capitalized cost of the bridge?
A city is spending $19.5 million on a new sewage system. The expected life of the system is 40 years, and it will have no market value at the end of its life. Operating and
maintenance expenses for the system are projected to average $0.8 million per year. If the city's MARR is 8% per year, what is the capitalized worth of the system? The study
period is 100 years.
Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when the MARR is 8% per year.
The capitalized worth of the system is $
million. (Round to two decimal places.)
Beaver, a city in the United States, is
attempting to attract a professional soccer
team. Beaver is planning to build a new
stadium that will cost $240 million. The
annual upkeep is expected to amount to
$830,000. The turf will have to be
replaced every 9 years at a cost
of $860,000. Painting every 8 years will
cost $88,000. If the city expects to
maintain the facility indefinitely, what is
the estimated capitalized cost at i =
9% per year?
