QUESTION 1 A new production system for a factory is to be purchased and installed for $177,896. This system will save approximately 300,000 kWh of electric power each year for a 6-year period. Assume the cost of electricity is $0.10 per kWh, and factory MARR is 15% per year, and the salvage value of the system will be $9,551 at year 6. Using the AW method to analyzes if this investment is economically justified A- calculate the AW of the...
A new production system for a factory is to be purchased and installed for $150,450. This system will save approximately 300,000 kWh of electric power each year for a 6-year period. Assume the cost of electricity is $0.10 per kWh, and factory MARR is 15% per year, and the salvage value of the system will be $8,488 at year 6. Using the PW method to analyzes if this investment is economically justified A- calculate the PW of the above investment and insert the result...
2) A retrofitted space-heating system is being considered for a small office building. The system can be purchased and installed for $110,000. Due to improved efficiency, it will require less electric power than the current system each year over a six-year period. The market value of the system will be $20,000 at the end of six years. A kWh of electricity costs $0.10, and the company uses a MARR of 15% per year. What are the minimum electrical savings in...
A retrofitted space-heating system is being considered for a small office building. The system can be purchased and installed for $135,000, and it will save an estimated 315,650 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electric power each year over a eight-year period. A kilowatt-hour of electricity costs $0.15, and the company uses a MARR of 15% per year in its economic evaluations of refurbished systems. The market value of the system will be $10,000 at the end of eight years, and additional annual...
HVAC Economics 1. In five years, the value of an investment of $1000 increases to $1200. What is the average annual interest rate over this period? 2. If the rate of general inflation is 3% and the nominal discount rate is 6%, what is the real discount rate? 3. According to 2017 US government projections, if the price of electricity for a commercial property in Oklahoma is $0.10/kWh in constant dollars in 2016, what will be its cost in constant...
A special-purpose 30-horsepower electric motor has an efficiency of 90%. Its purchase and installation price is $2,200. A second 30-horsepower high-efficiency motor can be purchased for $3,200, and its efficiency is 92%. Either motor will be operated 4,000 hours per year at full load, and electricity costs $0.10 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). MARR = 12% per year, and neither motor will have a market value at the end of the eight-year study period. a. Which motor should be chosen? b. For...
Problem 6-16 (algorithmic) Question Help A special-purpose 30-horsepower electric motor has an efficiency of 90%. Its purchase and installation price is $2,100. A second 30-horsepower high-efficiency motor can be purchased for $3,100, and its efficiency is 94%. Either motor will be operated 3,500 hours per year at full load, and electricity costs $0.09 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). MARR = 12% per year, and neither motor will have a market value at the end of the eight-year study period a. Which motor...
A medium scale (125 kW installed capacity) PV solar project costs $450,000 and has 200 MWh estiamted annual energy production value in Charlotte NC. The electricity is sold to the grid at $ 0.15 / kWh, paid at the location of solar system (no transmission cost). The project has a 20 year time horizon with salvage value of $ 22 thousand, and the MARR is 6 %. 1. a. Calculate the NPV of the project. b. Indicate if the project...
Problem 5-49 (algorithmic) Show Work | Question Help In this problem, we consider replacing an existing electrical water heater with an array of solar panels. The net installed investment cost of the panels is $1,520 ($1,900 less a 20% tax credit from the government). Based on an energy audit, the existing water heater uses 200 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity per month, so at $0.14 per kWh, the cost of operating the water heater is $28 per month. Assuming the...
