The crane can be sold now for $8,000. If the crane is kept in service, it must be overhauled immediately at a cost of $5,000. Operating and maintenance costs will be $3,000 per year after the crane is overhauled. The overhauled crane will have zero MV at the end of the 8-year study period. A new crane will cost $20,000, will last for 8 years, and will have a $4,000 MV at that time. Operating and maintenance costs are $1,000 per year for the new crane.

- A car is needed for three years. Plans A and B for acquiring the car are being evaluated. An effective annual interest rate of 10% is to be used. Which plan is economically superior? Plan A: Lease the car for $0.25/mile (all inclusive) Plan B: Purchase the car for $30,000. Keep the car for three years. Sell the car after three years for $7200. Pay $0.14 per mile for oil and gas. Pay other costs of $500 per year.arrow_forward1. Two alternative designs are under consideration for a tapered fastening pin. The fastening pins are sold for $0.70 each. Either design will serve equally well and will involve the same material and manufacturing cost except for the lathe and drill operations. Design A will require 12 hours of lathe time and 5 hours of drill time per 1,000 units. Design B will require 7 hours of lathe time and 8 hours of drill time per 1,000 units. The variable operating cost of the lathe, including labor, is $18.60 per hour. The variable operating cost of the drill, including labor, is $16.90 per hour. Finally, there is a sunk cost of $5,000 for Design A and $9,000 for Design B due to obsolete tooling. a. Which design should be adopted if 125,000 units are sold each year? b. What is the annual saving over the other design? 2.

Records for other vehicles show that costs for oil, tires, and repairs roughly equal the cost for fuel. Fuel costs are $990 a year if the truck is driven 16,000 km. The salvage value after five years of use drops by $0.05 per km. Find the equivalent uniform annual cost if the discount rate is 8%. How much does this change if the annual mileage is 24,000 km? 8,000 km? Assume that, drop in Salvage Value is based on total kilometers driven, rather than the annual distance driven.arrow_forward
