Tom is considering purchasing a £20,500 car. After five years, he will be able to sell the vehicle for £7,500. Petrol costs will be £2,100 per year, insurance £650 per year, and parking £550 per year. Maintenance costs will be £900, rising by £400 per year thereafter. The alternative is for Tom to take taxis everywhere. This will cost an estimated £7,000 per year. Tom will rent a vehicle each year at a total cost (to year-end) of £900 for the family vacation, if he has no car. If Tom values money at 12% annual interest, should he buy the car? Use an annual worth comparison method (Perform all calculations using 5 significant figures and round any monetary answers to the nearest dollar). The annual cost of operating an Auto is: Number The annual cost of using taxis as an alternative is: Which option should Tom take (enter either 'Auto' or 'Taxi'? Number
You are trying to pick the least-expensive car for your new delivery service. You have two choices: the Scion xA, which will cost $17,000 to purchase and which will have OCF of -$1,800 annually throughout the vehicle's expected life of three years as a delivery vehicle; and the Toyota Prius, which will cost $25,000 to purchase and which will have OCF of -$950 annually throughout that vehicle's expected 4-year life. Both cars will be worthless at the end of their life. You intend to replace whichever type of car you choose with the same thing when its life runs out, again and again out into the foreseeable future. If the business has a cost of capital of 12 percent, calculate the EAC. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Scion's EAC Toyota's EAC Which one should you choose? O Scion XA O Toyota Prius
You bought a new car which you intend to use as a public utility vehicle for P950,000. The expected life of the car is ten (10) years for its intended use.  Your driver and you agreed that for the first five (5) years , your “boundary” is P1,500.00 per day and P1,000.00 per day for the rest of its economic life.  You also expected a repair and maintenance costs of P30,000 every six (6) months from year one (1) to five (5) and P50,000 from year six (6) to ten (10).  At the end of 10 years you can sell the car for P100,000.  If your MARR on invested capital is 15% every (6) months, determine whether this is a good investment.  Use the Anual Worth method in your solution.  Indicate all other assumptions you use in your analysis.Use manually solve and don't use excel.
