A company plans to modernize its facilities in 7 years.
They estimate saving $6,710 per month if they sell some of their machines now, and
salvage them for $14,632.
They also think 2 years from now their current $1,441 per month O & M costs will
increase by 1.03% per month until they sell the rest of the machines to modernize.
How much capital will they have available to modernize if they place all the savings
into an account that pays them a nominal 17.37% rate, compounded 6 periods per
year?
Maintenance cost of a machine is S 100 during the second year and to increase by $ 100 every year for the succeeding 5 years. What is the present value of the maintenance costs if the gradient to present equivalent conversion factor is equal to 32.18,the gradient to uniform series conversion factor is 4.59, the gradient to future equivalent conversion factor is 42.87.
