Ans:
Plan(A) should be selected.
Select any one out of alternatives, we check present value of cash flows.
Higher present value of cash flows should be selected.
Under plan A,
PV = - 21000
Under plan B,
PV=-[2000/(1+.04)]-[3500/(1+.04)^2]-[5000/(1+.04)^3]-[6500(1+.04)^4]-[8000(1+.04)^5]
=-(2000/1.04)-[3500/(1.04)^2]-[5000/(1.04)^3]-[6500(1.04)^4]-[8000(1.04)^5]
=-(2000/1.04)-(3500/1.08)-(5000/1.12)-(6500/1.17)-(8000/1.22)
=-1923.08-3240.74-4464.26-5555.55-6557.38
=-5163.82-10019.81-6557.38
PV=-21741.01
Since plan A has higher net present value (or least PV of costs), it should be selected.

Mr. H is considering which one of three alternative courses of action A, B and C to take. The profit or loss from each choice depends on which one of four circumstances,I, II, I or IV will apply. The possible profits and losses, in thousands of dollars, are given in the following payoff table. Losses are shown as negative figures: Action A 70 -10 80 60 Action B 60 20 0 100 Action C 70 -5 50 115 Circumstance I...

QUESTION 23 Two alternatives have the following cash flows: Alternative Year A B 0 -$10000 -$15000 1 +$3000 +$4400 2 +$3000 +$4400 3 +$3000 +$4400 4 +$3000 +$4400 Assuming a 5% MARR, use incremental analysis to determine which alternative should be selected?
Based on what you have learned in Module 2 (Charter 5 and 6), please describe your approach at solving the following two scenarios. This should include selection of the appropriate method (present worth analysis or annual cash flow analysis), reasoning behind your selection (advantages vs. disadvantages), and the point in time selected and their corresponding reasons: 1. Use a 10-year analysis period and an interest rate of 8%, determine which alternative should be selected. Alternative A Alternative B First Cost...
