Problem 09.020 Benefit/Cost Analysis of a Single Project
A consultant, after 3 months of work, reported that the modified
B/C ratio for a city-owned hospital heliport project is 2. If the
initial cost is $1.9 million and the annual benefits are $115,000,
what is the amount of the annual M&O costs used in the
calculation? The report stated that a discount rate of 7% per year
and an estimated life of 30 years were used.
Having much difficulty with this question, would appreciate some
guidance with formulas, and explanation as to what is
happening.
B/C ratio = 2, Initial Cost = $ 1.9 million
PV of Benefits = Initial Cost x (B/C) = 1.9 x 2 = $ 3.8 million
Discount Rate = 7 % and Tenure = 30 years
Let the benefits be $ m
Therefore, 3.8 = m x (1/0.07) x [1-{1/(1.07)^(30)}]
3.8 = m x 12.409
m = 3.8 / 12.409 = $ 306228.33
Benefit - Annual M&O Costs = 115000
Annual M&O Costs = 306228.33 - 115000 = $ 191228.33

(6) THINKING ABOUT COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS. When evaluating how much to invest on a project the typical Present Value (PV) formula is used where R is the discount rate, Bt is the benefit, and Ct is cost the associated with the project in year t, and n is the number of years associated with the project a. What is the PV of $1 today? In one year (say March 30, 2017), what is the PV of $1 at b. Suppose that...
Problem 09.010 Benefit/Cost Analysis of a Single Project The estimated annual cash flows for a proposed municipal government project are costs of $710,000 per year, benefits of $910,000 per year, and disbenefits of $160,000 per year. Calculate the conventional B/C ratio at an interest rate of 12% per year, and determine if it is economically justified. The B/C ratio is The project is economically (Click to select) A
