GoBulls Media is considering opening a new manufacturing facility to process and mail coupons to 660,000 households in the Tampa Bay area. The new facility will require an initial investment of $240,000 and an annual operating cost of $22,000. It will have a $86,500 salvage value after 5 years. Calculate the Effective annual interest rate of the MARR if the company's minimum attractive rate of return is 5% per year, compounded monthly.
An assembly operation at a software company now requires $100,000 per year in labor costs. A robot can be purchased
and installed to automate this operation. The robot will cost $200,000. Maintenance and operation expenses of the
robot are estimated to be $64,000 per year for the first 2 years and $10,000 thereafter. Replacement of minimal parts
will cost $5000 every 3 years. Invested capital must earn at least 12% per year. What is the capitalized cost? (Draw cash

Assume your goal is to have $2 million available when you stop the annual desposits and that the fund is able to return 10% per year every year. (a) Determine if you will reach your goal for either of the following two deposit scenarios: (1) $12,000 each and every year; (2) $8000 at the end of next year for 15 years, followed by $15,000 deposits in each of years 16 through 30. (b) Determine the exact number of years necessary to accumulate the $2 million if $12,000 is deposited each year until the goal is achieved. (c) For a little more of a challenge, use only the FV function to determine the number of years necessary to attain the $2 million goal for the second deposit scenario, assuming the $15,000 is deposited annually until the goal is achieved.arrow_forwardAn indium-gallium-arsenide-nitrogen alloy developed at Sandia National Laboratory is said to have potential uses in electricity- generating solar cells.
