A. An NGO is considering building a school for children in a community with 200 children. Assume that currently, only 83 children attend school. Analysts have estimated that the new school will double school attendance to 166 children. Also, assume that the present social value of each child attending school is $2,000. If the project requires an initial investment of $50k plus an additional $15k per year after the first year until it is completed, and if it takes 4 years to complete, what is its SNPV at a PDR of 7%? Assume that the construction imposes a negative externally of $7k a year due to noise and pollution. Also assume that the benefits start in the 5th year. B. Calculate the SIRR for the above project. C. Explain, why a child attending school has social value
A consulting engineer has been hired to advise a town how best to proceed with theconstruction of a 200,000-m3 water supply reservoir. Since only 120,000 m3 of storagewill be required for the next 25 years, an alternative to building the full capacity now isto build the reservoir in two stages. Initially, the reservoir could be built with 120,000 m3of capacity and then, 25 years hence, the additional 80,000 m3 of capacity could beadded by increasing the height of the reservoir. If interest is computed at 4%, whichconstruction plan is preferred? Detail your steps in excel.

6. A cement grinding mill "A" with the capacity of 50 tons per hour utilizes forged steel grinding balls costing P12,000 per ton, which have a wear rate of 100grams per ton cement milled. Another cement mill "B" of same capacity uses high chrome steel grinding balls costing P30,000 per ton with wear rate of 10grams per ton cement milled. Determine by calculation the more economical grinding mill, considering other factors to be the same and how much is the difference incurred in losses.
