Rebecca is moving away from New York City for her new job, so she must buy a car rather than rely on public transit. The new car she is considering will cost $ 18,000 to buy, $ 1,500 per year to insure, and $ 500 per year for maintenance after the 3-year warranty expires. She would keep the car for 7 years when it will have a salvage value of $ 7,000. She has found a 2-year-old car that is the same model for $ 13,000. The 3-year warranty is transferrable, so the annual maintenance cost of $500 starts in year 2. Because the car is less valuable, insurance is $300 per year less than for the new car. After 5 years, the vehicle will be 7 years old and will have the same salvage value of $ 7,000. Rebecca is ignoring costs for fuel, oil, tires and registration, because the two vehicles will have the same costs. If her interest rate is 9%, how much cheaper is the used car (difference of EAC of two vehicles)

Problem 13 The Keiser Mining Company must deposit money in an account TODAY (n=0) to cover the anticipated cleanup costs that will begin when the mine closes. These cleanup costs of $6000 will begin in year 5 and repeat every 2 years, as shown below. The account will pay 5% annual interest. $6 $6 $6 $in thousands of 5 - ST 10 11 = The amount Keiser Mining Company should deposit TODAY is closest to: a. $45,900 b. $48,200 c. $50,600 d. $58,500
Littrell's Nursery needs a new irrigation system. System one will cost $145,000, have annual maintenance costs of $10,000, and need an overhaul at the end of year six costing $30,000. System two will have first year maintenance costs of $5,000 with increases of $500 each year thereafter. System two would not require an overhaul. Both systems will have no salvage value after 12 years. If Littrell's cost of capital is 4%, using annual worth analysis determine the maximum Littrell's should be willing to pay for system two.
A transit system is considering buying 6 more buses to provide better service. It will cost $100,000 for buying a new bus and $15,000 per year for maintenance and operation for the following 8 years. If the city’s MARR is 8%, what is the equivalent uniform annual cost of this project? Assume the bus has no value at the end of 8 years.

A company is considering establishing a new machine to automate a meatpacking process. The machine will save $59,350 in labor annually. The machine can be purchased for $271,296 today and will be used for 8 years. It has a salvage value of $11,071 at the end of its useful life. The new machine will require an annual maintenance cost of $9,594. The corporation has a minimum rate of return of 9.4%. Calculate the NPW.

Please do not give solution in image format thanku Two incinerators are being considered by a waste management company. Design A has an initial cost of $2,500,000,has annual operating and maintenance costs of $800,000, and requires overhauls every 5 years at a cost of $1,250,000.Design B is more sophisticated, including computer controls; it has an initial cost of $5,750,000, has annual operatingand maintenance costs of $600,000, and requires overhauls every 10 years at a cost of $3,000,000. Using a 5 percent/year interest rate, determine the capitalized cost for each design and recommend which should be chosen
