A Philippine Society of Civil Engineers is planning to put up its own building, and two proposals (5-year project) are being considered. The money is worth 20% compounded monthly. PROPOSAL A. The construction of the building to cost P246,933.00 at the end of 4 years and P162,751.00 for the next year. PROPOSAL B. The construction of the building now, to cost P55,016.00, P184,773.00 at the end of 4 years and an extension to be added a year after, to cost P92,348.00. Determine the following: 1. Equivalent present cost of Proposal A. 2. Equivalent present cost of Proposal B.
You have received the proposal to invest $1,000,000 in exchange for receiving income of $75,000 at the end of the first month that would decrease 0.3% each month starting from the 2nd month. Expenses are estimated at $25,000 at each end of the month, starting from the 1st month. Assume that the proposal will last 5 years and that the minimum acceptable rate of return (m) is 1.5% per month. What does the Present Value criterion recommend? Show your work. If flow patterns are found (uniform, arithmetic, exponential), use factors.
