Transcribed Image Text:**Machine Selection for New Manufacturing Facility**
A manufacturing facility is set to produce two products, both requiring a drilling operation. Two types of drilling machines, D1 and D2, are considered for purchase. These machines must meet the same annual demand. Consider the following details for selection at a Minimum Attractive Rate of Return (MARR) of 12% per year:
- **Assumptions:**
- Operation: 2,000 hours annually.
- Machine Availability:
- D1: 85%
- D2: 80%
- Yield:
- D1: 95%
- D2: 85%
- Workers are paid for any idle time.
For further details:

- Click the icon to view the interest and annuity table for discrete compounding when *i* = 12% per year.
**Cost Analysis**
1. **Total Equivalent Annual Cost for D1:** $ ___ (Round to nearest hundreds)
2. **Total Equivalent Annual Cost for D2:** $ ___ (Round to nearest hundreds)
**Decision Point**
Which machine should be selected? Choose from the options:
- D1
- D2
Please complete the calculations to determine the most cost-effective machine for purchase.

- As a project engineer, you received the AW analysis below from the finance department. It is for a new piece of equipment you ordered some months ago. You were told the interest rate used was 10% per year, but no first cost or projected salvage value was provided and you want to know them. Determine the values of P and S using the AW values for the year 3. Note: The AW values are equivalent values through the given year, not costs for the single year.

The salvage value for this model at the end of its life is $4,271 (For year 2 the salvage value is $7,594). Model 2 has a life of three years with a first cost of $15,000 and maintenance costs of $700 per year. Its salvage value at the end of its life is $9,300 (year 3).

This equipment will have an estimated first cost of $214,000, a salvage value of $90,000, a life of 10 years, a maintenance cost of $42,000 per year, and an operating cost of $320 per day. Alternatively, the company can rent the necessary equipment for $1180 per day and hire a driver at $180 per day. When approached to rent for the breakeven number of days, the equipment owner indicated that the minimum rental is for 100 days per year; however, he might consider a lower daily rental cost. What is the daily rental cost to justify renting over purchasing? If the equipment was purchased, assume it would be used for the breakeven number of days. Determine the required rental cost per day.
