A project your firm is considering for implementation has these estimated costs and revenues: an investment cost of $56417, a maintenance costs that start at $5,000 at end of year (FOY) one and increase by $1,000 for esch of the next four years, and then remain constant for the following five years; savings of $24851 per year (EOY 1-10); and finally a resale value of $31935 at EOY 10 If the project has a 10 year life and the firm's MARR is 10% per yeat, what is the present worth of the project?.
Valerie Johnson is due to graduate from CSU-Stanislaus next December, with a degree in Business
Administration and she has decided to go in business for herself. The feasibility study she concluded last
month clearly indicates that sports bikes currently have a huge potential in the San Joaquin Valley, Thus, she
decided to import sports bikes that she will sell in the Valley. She has narrowed down the import sources for
these bikes to three countries: China, India, and South Africa. She only needs your help figuring out how
much she would have to pay in custom duties, based on the import duty policies applicable to each of these
countries (the policies are stated below):
The current import duties policy for bikes imported from India states: "Sports bikes originating from India
shall face a 20% duty, perbike."
Assuming that each of these bikes is valued at $800 (Port of San Francisco), how much will Valerie Johnson
I have to pay in duties, per bike?

- A chemical engineer is considering two styles of pipes for moving distillate from a refinery to the tank farm. A small pipeline will cost less to purchase (including valves and other appurtenances) but will have a high head loss and, therefore, a higher pumping cost. The small pipeline has an initial investment cost of $10,000 and the operating cost on the pipeline for 5 years. The operating cost averages are steady at $500 per year for the first 3 years, and will be $700 in year 4, $900 in year 5. A large-diameter pipeline has an initial investment cost of $8,500, but its annual operating cost is not known. If your company would like to choose a large- diameter pipeline due to the practical use and various factors, what is the maximum operating cost average of a large-diameter pipeline in each year?

The continuous flow process was previously determined to have Its lowest cost over a 5-year life cycle, but the batch process can be used from 3 to 10 years. If selecting the batch process is sensitive to its useful life, what is the minimum life that makes It more attractive? The batch system will be less expensive than the continuous flow if it lasts over years.arrow_forward
