You, an engineer, and an attorney friend, Rob, started a small business 3 years ago to do energy audits for small businesses. A piece of equipment that costs $25,000 then has become prematurely obsolete and needs to be replaced with a solid state version that has a purchase price of $20,000 and the current equipment has a nil salvage value. Your company accountant shows the book value of the equipment to be $10,000. (a) If you buy the solid state equipment, how should the difference between the cost of the new equipment and the value of the old equipment be considered? (b) Your partner thinks of this difference as an added cost to the new equipment, effectively making its purchase price $30,000. Is she correct?
ACME Anvil Corporation has done extensive
analysis of their current process and found the

A machine that cost $120,000 3 years ago can be sold now for $51,500. Its market value is expected to be $40,000 and $20,000 1
year and 2 years from now, respectively. Its operating cost was $18,000 for the first 3 years of its life, but the M&O cost is expected to
be $23,000 for the next 2 years. A new improved machine that can be purchased for $135,500 will have an economic life of 5 years,
and an operating cost of $9,000 per year, and a salvage value of $32,000 whenever it is replaced. At an interest rate of 10% per year,
determine if the presently owned machine should be replaced now, 1 year from now, or 2 years from now.
The annual worth of the existing machine one year from now is $- 50500 O. the annual worth of the existing machine two years
from now is $- 30,500 . and the annual worth of the new machine is $-112,500
The presently owned machine should be replaced now

- Part a.) An engineer with Calahan Technologies calculated the AW of cost values shown for a presently owned machine using estimates she obtained from the vendor and company records. A challenger has an economic service life of 7 years with an AW of $-86,000 per year. Assume that all future costs remain as estimated and the challenger's technology will definitely replace that of the defender within 5 years. When should the company purchase the challenger? Retention Period, Years AW of Costs, $ per Year -92,000 2 -81,000 -87,000 4 -89,000 5 -95,000 Part b.) The costs and revenue projections for a new product made on the machine from Part a.) are estimated below. What is the estimated profit at a production rate of 25% above breakeven?

Its operating cost is $325,000 per year and it's expected salvage value 3 years from now is $145,000. The firm's CEO is considering replacing the presently owned used crane with a brand new crane with a much higher load limit which will cost $1.5 million. The operating cost of the new crane will be $260,000 per year, but its higher load limit will allow the contractor to generate extra revenue that is expected to amount to $525,000 per year. The new crane can probably be sold for $850,000 3 years from now. You have been asked to determine how much the presently owned crane would have to be worth on the open market today for the annual worth (AW) values of the two machines to be the same over a 3-year planning period.

- 8 years ago a company installed a robot that today has a market value of $ 60,000 and each year it drops $ 2000. For example, at the end of the first year the market value will be $ 58,000 and so it continues to decline. Maintenance costs for the next 4 years are estimated at $ 3000 this year and increasing 10% each year. Determine the marginal cost of extending the service for one year, for the next 4 years if the MARR is 12%. Fill in the blanks with the results.
