2. Frank West Enterpises would like to choose one of the following plans for expansion. Using present worth analysis, find the best alternative among the three alternatives and the Do-Nothing.

	Alt. A	Alt. B	Alt. C
Initial Cost	$10,000	$21,000	$8,000
EUAB	$6,000	$7,000	$4,000
EUAC	$1,500	$1,000	$2,000
Salvage Value	$2,000	$8,000	$3,000
Life	2 Years	3 Years	2 Years

Use a MARR of 10%.

U. S. Engineering is investigating the possibility of acquiring new automated packaging equipment at a cost of $12,000. It is expected that the equipment will have a salvage value of $1,000 at the end of its useful life of 10 years. It is determined by the plant engineering department at the company that the operation and maintenance cost will be $500 in the first year and will gradually increase every year starting year 2 at the rate of $50 until the equipment is retired. Determine the equivalent uniform annual cost (EUAC) if MARR for the company is 10%.

		$2,575.95
		$2,150.50
	.	$2,176.60
	.	$2,184.40

The cash flows given in table below are for two different alternatives. MARR =10%

Data	C	D
Initial Cost	$20,000	$80,000
Uniform Annual Benefits	$6,000	$10,000
Salvage Value	$5,000	$20,000
Useful Life in years	5	infinity

The equivalent uniform annual worth (EUAW) of alternative N is ______________.

Hint: Assume the Salvage Value is never realized since N is infinite.

		$2,000
		$1,920
		$1,762
		$2,476

Compare the following plans using a MARR of 6%.

Data	Plan X	Plan Y
Equipment First Cost	$50,000	$75,000
Annual Operation & Maintenance Cost	$3,000	$2,500
Salvage Value	$10,000	$0
Service Life, Years)	25	50

		$6,728; $7,255
		$7,255; $9,000

LAEP, Inc. wants to evaluate two methods of shipping their products. The following cash flows are associated with each alternative:

Data	Method
	A	B
Life (Years)	10	10
First Cost	$700,000	$1,512,000
M&O Cost	$18,000	$9,000
M&O Cost Gradient	$900	$775
Annual Benefit	$154,000	$303,000
Salvage Value	$142,000	$210,000

Annual profits are based on amount of products which can ordinarily be shipped each year as a function of the amount of vehicles or service purchased with the first cost and the M&O costs.

Using a MARR of 15%, calculate the equivalent uniform annual cash flow (EUAB - EUAC) for each alternative.

Determine the most desirable alternative based on the results.

		$389.57, $445.90; Method A
		$445.90, $389.57; Method A
	.	$445.90, $389.57; Method B
	.	$389.57, $445.90; Method B

For the cash flow diagram shown, which of the following equations properly calculates the uniform equivalent (A)?

n	0	3	6	9	12	15
Dollars	$100	$100	$100	$100	$100	$100

		A=100(A/P,i,15)+ 100(A/F,i,3)
		A=100(A/P,i,15)
		A=100(A/F,i,3) + 100(A/F,i,15)
		A=100(A/P,i,3) + 100(A/F,i,3)

Three different alternatives shown in table below are being considered by U. S. Engineering systems.

Assume that alternatives X and Z are replaced at the end of their lives.

Data	Alternative X	Alternative Y	Alternative Z
Initial Cost	$6,000	$1,000	$1,500
Uniform Annual Benefits	$810	$125	$ 230
Useful Life in Years	20	infinite	10
MARR	12%
