Note: Give me both a&b right solutions. I will give good rating. An intergated, combined cycle power plant produces 300 MW of electricity by gasifying coal. the captial investment for the plant is $630 million, spread evenly over two years. the operating life of the plant is expected to be 25 years. additionally the plant will operate at full capacity 76% of the time ( downtime is 24% of any given year ) the MARR is 9% per year a) if this plant will make a profit of two cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity sold to the power grid, what is the simple payback period of the plant ? is it a low-risk venture ? b) what is the IRR for the plant ? is it profitable ?
Engineering Economics You bought a new car which you intend to use as a public utility vehicle for P950,000. The expected life of the car is ten (10) years for its intended use. Your driver and you agreed that for the first five (5) years , your “boundary” is P1,500.00 per day and P1,000.00 per day for the rest of its economic life. You also expected a repair and maintenance costs of P30,000 every six (6) months from year one (1) to five (5) and P50,000 from year six (6) to ten (10). At the end of 10 years you can sell the car for P100,000. If your MARR on invested capital is 15% every (6) months, determine whether this is a good investment. Use the present Worth method in your solution. Indicate all other assumptions you use in your analysis.Use manually solve and don't use excel.
A 20 kW enclosed motor with a load factor of 70% and an efficiency of 87.5% will be replaced by a new 20 kW enclosed motor operating at the same load factor, but will now have a higher efficiency of 91%. How many kW of power savings will be obtained from this project?
An in place machine has an equivalent annual worth of $-100000 for each year of its maximum remaining useful life of two years. A suitable replacement is determined to have equivalent annual worth values of $-175000, $-125000, and $-150000 per year if kept for 1,2, or 3 years, respectively. When should the company replace the machine, if it uses a fixed 3-year planning horizon? Use an interest rate of 17.255609824% per year compounded semiannualy.
Your company is planning to expand by taking over the next-door manufacturing facility. You are faced with a buy-versus-lease option. The purchase price is $1.5 million, while you can lease it for $270,000 per year for 10 years. If purchased, it can be sold for 40% of its original price at the end of its 10 years life. In either case the annual income is estimated to be $1.2 million and the annual operating cost would be $300,000. Your company pays 38% combined income tax and the after-tax minimum attractive rate of return (MARR) is 10%. Assuming lease payments are due at the end of the year and using a straight-line depreciation over the 10 years life with full first year depreciation, determine: a. The EUAW = EUAB-EUAC for each option with MARR = 10%. Should the facility be purchased or leased? b. The break-even rate of return of purchase versus lease, i.e. ROR at which (EUAB – EUAC) purchase = (EUAB - EUAC) lease

(A) Write an expression for the average cost per year, C(n), for n years. C(n) =O %D
The maintenance of a machine in a manufacturing plant currently costs a company $8,000 every year (paid at the end of each year) with the cost increasing by $1,000 each subsequent year. Because of this, the plant manager is considering replacing this machine with a newer one which would cost $20,000 to purchase today, and then $4,000/year increasing by $30Ó in each year to maintain (also paid at the end of the year). If the company's MARR is at 8% per year compounded annually, what would be the discounted payback period (in years) for this proposed investment? 4 6. 7
