5.24

A chemical processing corporation is considering three methods


to dispose a non-hazardous chemical sludge: land application,
fluidized-bed incineration, and private disposal contract. The
estimation for each method are shown. Determine which has the
least cost on the basis of present worth comparison at 10% per year
for the following scenarios:
(a) The estimates are shown
(b) The contract award cost increases by 20% every 2-years renewal.
5.24

  Land Application Incineration Contract

First Cost, $ -130000 -900000 0

Annual Operating Cost, $ per year -95000 -60000 -120000

Salvage Value, $ 25000 300000 0

Life, years 3 6 2
5.24 (a)

PW
   LAND = – $130000 – $95000 (P/A, 10%, 6) – $105000 (P/F, 10%, 3) + $25000 (P/F, 10%, 6)
PWLAND =
PWLAND = – $608528

PWINCIN = – $900000 – $60000 (P/A, 10%, 6) + $300000 (P/F, 10%, 6)


PWINCIN =
PWINCIN = – $991968
5.24 (a)

PW
  CONTRACT = – $120000(P/A, 10%, 6)
PWCONTRACT =
PWCONTRACT = – $522636

THEREFORE, SELECT PRIVATE DISPOSAL CONTRACT


5.24 (b)

PW
  CONTRACT = – $120000 (P/A, 10%, 2) – $120000 (1.2) (P/A, 10%, 2) (P/F, 10%, 2)
PWCONTRACT =
PWCONTRACT = – $619615

THEREFORE, SELECT LAND APPLICATION CONTRACT; THE SELECTION CHANGED


5.31

Wealthy businessman wants to start a permanent fund for


supporting research directed toward sustainability. The donor
plans to give equal amounts of money for of the next 5 years,
plus one now (i.e. six donations) so that $100000 per year can be
withdrawn each year forever, beginning in year 6. If the fund
earns interest at a rate of 8% per year, how much money must be
donated each time?
5.31

CC  = – (P/F, 8%, 5)


CC = –
CC = – $850750
5.34

It is anticipated that the need for UPW (ultrapure water) at


the new Angular Enterprises site will continue for a long time, as
long as 50 years. This is the rationale for using capitalized cost as
a basis for the economic decision between desalinated seawater
(S) and purified groundwater (G). These costs were determined
to be CCS = – $53.38 million and CCG = – $48.91 million.
Groundwater is the clear economic choice.
5.34

Yesterday, the general manager had launch with the president


of Brissa Water, who offered to supply the needed UPW at a cost
of $5 million per year for the indefinite future. It would mean a
dependence upon a contractor to supply the water, but the
equipment, treatment, and other costly activities to obtain UPW
on-site would be eliminated. The manager ask you to make a
recommendation about this seemingly attractive alternative
under the following conditions at the same time MARR of 12%
per year as used for the other analysis:
5.34

(a) The annual cost of $5 million remains constant all throughout


the time it is needed.
(b) The annual cost starts at $5 million for the first year only, and
then it increases 2% per year. (This increase is above the cost
providing UPW by either of the two methods.)
5.34 (a)

CC C =
CCC = –
CCC = – $41.67M

THEREFORE, BETWEEN THE THREE OPTIONS, SELECT THE CONTRACTOR


5.34 (b)

Pg =
Pg = – $49.53M

A = Pg (A/P, 12%, 50)


A = Pg
A = – $5.96M
5.34 (b)

CC C =
CCC = –
CCC = – $49.7M

THEREFORE, BETWEEN THE THREE OPTIONS, SELECT THE GROUNDWATER
