Millard Manufacturing must replace one of its pumps. The net present cost of Alternative A is $8,956, Alternative B is $5,531, and Alternative C is $4,078. Alternative A is expected to last for 12 years; Alternative B has a life expectancy of 7 years; and Alternative C is expected to last for 5 years. If Millard's MARR is 5%, which alternative (if any) should be chosen using EUAC (Equivalent Uniform Annual Cost)?

The discharge from the Renenutet sugar beet plant causes the DO at the critical point to fall to 4.0 mg/L. The Meskhenet Stream has a negligible BOD and the initial deficit after the river and wastewater have mixed is zero. What DO will result if the concentration of the waste(L_w) is reduced by 50%? Assume that the flows remain the same and that the saturation value of DO is 10.83 mg/L in both cases.
