year before taxes and the machine must return the capital in 5 years. Motor A costs
P68,000 and has a guaranteed efficiency of 85% at the indicated operating load.
Motor B costs P56,000 and has a guaranteed efficiency of 80% at the same
operating load. Electric energy costs P 6.80 per kilowatt-hour and 1hp = 0.746kW.
Determine the annual cost of electric energy in operating motor A.
