A machine having a first cost of $20,000 is expected to save $1500 in the first year of operation, and the savings should increase by $200 every year until (and including) the 9th year; thereafter, the savings will decrease by $150 until (and including) the 16th year. Using equivalent uniform annual worth, is this machine economical? Assume a MARR of 10%.

A machine cost P20,000 today and has an estimated scrap value of P2,000 after 8 years. Inflation is 2% per year. The effective annual interest rate earned on money invested is 8%. How much money needs to be set aside each year to replace the machine with an identical model 8 years from now?

A machine costs $10000 today and has annual operating costs of $3000 in each of the next four years. The cost of capital is 10%. The present value of the machine’s costs is ? And it’s equivalent annual cost is

Elijah Enterprises will need to upgrade the computer system in 6 years. They anticipate the upgrade to cost $95,300. If the discount rate is 15%, what will be the required yearly investment needed to obtain the money for the upgrade?Round your (1+R)^n value to 2 decimal places and use that number for your final amount required rounded to the nearest dollar. Future Value / (1+R)^n = Amount Required   /   =   What would be required if the discount rate was 8%? Future Value / (1+R)^n = Amount Required   /   =

Suppose you were considering purchasing a $5000 machine today that would generate additional net profit of $2000 booked at the end of each year.  Assuming you need a 15 percent return to justify the investment, would the investment be worth doing if you had only three years of payouts?  Would your answer change if you had four years of $2000 payouts?  Why or why not?

The company estimates that a project with an initial investment of -$25 will produce ten positive cash flows of $4.3 a year at the end of each of the next 10 years. The project's cost of capital is 11%. One year from now, there is a 40% chance that the product demand will be low, in which case the yearly cash flows will be only $2.00. One year from now, there is 60% chance that the product demand will be higher, and the yearly cash flows will be $4.8. Should the company exercise investment timing option and wait a year before proceeding? Prove numerically.

The revenue from a manufacturing process (in millions of dollars per year) is projected to follow the model R=130 for 10 years. Over the same period of time, the cost (in millions of dollars per year) is projected to follow the model C-50+ 0.22, where t is the time (in years). Approximate the profit over the 10-year period. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) $ million Need Help? P

The purchasing price for a dye press is $30,000. It is expected to provide labour cost savings of $5,000 in year 1. The savings are expected to increase linearly by X$ each year for seven years. Find the dollar value of X such that the purchase price is justified by the labour savings at MARR = 5%.The solution is with $1 of which of the following?65.8067.8069.8071.80None of the above

An investment that requires $3000 initial investment will return $1000 at the end of first year, $2000 at the end of second year, and $3000 at the end of third year. Assume the discount rate is continuously compounded at 10%.What is the Net Present Value of the investment

a new process for a manufacturing process will have a first cost of $45,000 with annual costs of $38,000. Extra income associated with the new process is expected to be $62,000 per year. What is the discounted payback period at i=12% per year? Options: 2.48 3.23 2.25 4.52
