An engineer bought an equipment for 500,000. He spent an additional amount of 35,000 for installation and other expenses. The estimated useful life of the equipment is 10 years. The salvage value is x% of the first cost. Using the straight line method of depreciation, the book value at the end of 5 years will be 291,500. What is the value of x?
Draw the cashflow if necessary
Economics
Last year, a decision was made to keep the same equipment in lieu of
buying new equipment. The old equipment's trade-in value last year
was $4000 and its value this year is $2000. The operating cost was
$700 last year. If bought last year, the new equipment would have
cost $13K, the salvage value after 8 years would be $2000, and it
would have an annual operating cost of $4000.
If bought last year, what would have been the EUAC of the new
equipment (in dollars) at 16% interest rate per year? (provide your
answer in the box as a negative value if you arrive at costs)
What would have been the correct decision? (provide your answer
and justification in your pdf file submission)
Mang Danny bought a piece of equipment for P1,000,000. He spent an additional amount of P300,000 for installation and other
expenses. The salvage value is 15% of the first cost. If the book value at the end of 7 years will be P333,125 using SLM, compute
the useful life of the equipment in years.

- A specialty concrete mixer used in construction was purchased for $300,000 7 years ago. Its annual O&M costs are $105,000. At the end of the 8-year planning horizon, the mixer will have a salvage value of $5,000. If the mixer is replaced, a new mixer will require an initial investment of $375,000. At the end of the 8-year planning horizon, it will have a salvage value of $45,000. Its annual O&M cost will be only $40,000 due to newer technology. Analyze this using an EUAC measure and a MARR of 15 percent to see if the concrete mixer should be replaced if the old mixer is sold for its market value of $65,000. a.
