You are weighing the economics of installing a triple-glazed energy efficient window system in your building. The following life cycle costs and savings are provided. The study period is 25 years, and the discount rate is 10%. Is this an economically viable approach based on the Savings-to-Investment Ratio (SIR)? Triple- Glazed Energy Efficient Windows: Window Quantity takeoff: 10000 sf Initial Cost: $100/sf Annual Operating Costs: $2.5/sf Annual Energy Saving: $10/sf
A new piece of equipment costs $100,000. The life of the equipment is estimated to be 15
years. During the first five years there will be no maintenance cost for it but after that the
annul maintenance cost will be $20,000. The equipment is assumed to be useless at the
end of its life. Compute the equivalent annual cost of owning it by taking į = 10%.

The pump has a lifetime of 15 years and is estimated to save approximately $1,000 per year. There is an additional maintenance cost of $300 per year associated with this new pump. The pump will have a salvage value of $0 at the end of its lifetime. Assume the interest rate is 4%. Problem: What is the annual value of the pump?arrow_forward
- Question 7 Question 4.30 Problem Value = 5 Diana usually uses a three-year payback period to determine if a project is acceptable. A recent project with uniform yearly savings over a five-year life had a payback period of almost exactly three years, so Diana decided to find the project's present worth to help determine if the project was truly justifiable. However, that calculation didn't help either since the present worth was exactly 0. What interest rate was Diana using to calculate the present worth? The project has no salvage value at the end of its five-year life. Diana's interest rate was (just input the number...and round to the nearest whole pecent): ____________% [5/5]arrow_forwardQuestion 2 A common economic analysis objective is to find out whether it is more profitable to purchase an asset rather than rent it. A simple case of this dilemma is currently being analyzed by a private company which wants to procure a pick-up truck for regular operation. For the next 24 months, the truck can be leased or purchased. The truck costs $9,500 if purchased now in cash. If leased, the monthly lease is $358 with the first payment due by the end of the first month. At the end of the lease term, 24 months, the truck is returned to the auto dealer with expected final repair cost of $1,000 to be paid immediately before return to dealer. If purchased, the truck can be financed through monthly payments. The financing nominal interest rate is to be negotiated with the dealer. The financing will require $2,000 down payment (paid now) and monthly payments starting at the end of the first month. After 24 months, it is expected to be worth half its purchase price.

- A company is about to invest in a joint venture research and development project with another company. The project is expected to last nine years, but yearly payments the company makes will begin immediately (a payment is made today, and the last payment is nine years from today). Salaries will account for $50,000 of each payment. The reminder of each payment will cover equipment costs and facility overhead. The initial (immediate) equipment and facility cost is $50,000. Each subsequent year this figure will drop by $5000 until a cost of $25000 is reached, after which the costs will remain constant until the end of the project. a) Draw a cash flow diagram to illustrate the cash flows for this project. b) At an interest rate of 10%, what is the total future worth of all project payments at the end of the nine years?arrow_forwardA company is developing a new electronic product.
