A newly constructed water treatment facility costs $2 million. It is estimated that the facility will need revamping to maintain the original design specification every 30 years at a cost of $1 million. Annual repairs and maintenance costs are estimated to be $100,000. At an interest rate of 8%, determine the capitalized cost of the facility, assuming that it will be used for an indefinite period.

The construction cost of a permanent water park is $550,000. Annual maintenance and operation costs are $100,000 per year. A) At an interest rate of 7% per year, find the capitalized cost of the park in present worth. (Hint: a capitalized cost is when every cost is brought to present worth, in this case the upfront construction costs are current). B) What would be the annualized cost if the whole project was to be financed over 25 years at 6% interest?

A proposed cost-saving device has an installed cost of $785,000. The device will be used in a five-year project but is classified as three-year MACRS property for tax purposes (MACRS schedule). The required initial net working capital investment is $75,000, the tax rate is 25 percent, and the project discount rate is 9 percent. The device has an estimated Year 5 salvage value of $115,000. What level of pretax cost savings do we require for this project to be profitable? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.
An investment of $20,000 for a new condenser is being considered. Estimated salvage value of the condenser is $5,000 at the end of an estimated life of 6 years. Annual income each year for the 6 years is $8,500. Annual operating expenses are $2,300. Assume money is worth 15% compounded annually. Determine the external rate of return and whether or not the condenser should be purchased.
