Exam (elaborations) TEST BANK FOR Engineering Economy 7th Edition By Leland Blank and Anthony Tarquin (Instructor's Solution Manual) Solutions to end-of-chapter problems Engineering Economy, 7th edition Leland Blank and Anthony Tarquin Chapter 1 Foundations of Engineering Economy 1.1 The four elements are cash flows, time of occurrence of cash flows, interest rates, and measure of economic worth. 1.2 (a) Capital funds are money used to finance projects. It is usually limited in the amount of money available. (b) Sensitivity analysis is a procedure that involves changing various estimates to see if/how they affect the economic decision. 1.3 Any of the following are measures of worth: present worth, future worth, annual worth, rate of return, benefit/cost ratio, capitalized cost, payback period, economic value added. 1.4 First cost: economic; leadership: non-economic; taxes: economic; salvage value: economic; morale: non-economic; dependability: non-economic; inflation: economic; profit: economic; acceptance: non-economic; ethics: non-economic; interest rate: economic. 1.5 Many sections could be identified. Some are: I.b; II.2.a and b; III.9.a and b. 1.6 Example actions are: • Try to talk them out of doing it now, explaining it is stealing • Try to get them to pay for their drinks • Pay for all the drinks himself • Walk away and not associate with them again 1.7 This is structured to be a discussion question; many responses are acceptable. It is an ethical question, but also a guilt-related situation. He can justify the result as an accident; he can feel justified by the legal fault and punishment he receives; he can get angry because it WAS an accident; he can become tormented over time due to the stress caused by accidently causing a child’s death. 1.8 This is structured to be a discussion question; many responses are acceptable. Responses can vary from the ethical (stating the truth and accepting the consequences) to unethical (continuing to deceive himself and the instructor and devise some on-the-spot excuse). Lessons can be learned from the experience. A few of them are: • Think before he cheats again. • Think about the longer-term consequences of unethical decisions. • Face ethical-dilemma situations honestly and make better decisions in real time. 2 Alternatively, Claude may learn nothing from the experience and continue his unethical practices. 1.9 i = [(3,885,000 - 3,500,000)/3,500,000]*100% = 11% per year 1.10 (a) Amount paid first four years = 900,000(0.12) = $108,000 (b) Final payment = 900,000 + 900,000(0.12) = $1,008,000 1.11 i = (1125/12,500)*100 = 9% i = (6160/56,000)*100 = 11% i = (7600/95,000)*100 = 8% The $56,000 investment has the highest rate of return. 1.12 Interest on loan = 23,800(0.10) = $2,380 Default insurance = 23,800(0.05) = $1190 Set-up fee = $300 Total amount paid = 2380 + 1190 + 300 = $3870 Effective interest rate = (3870/23,800)*100 = 16.3% 1.13 The market interest rate is usually 3 – 4 % above the expected inflation rate.

For example, if there is no F involved when using the PMT function to solve a particular problem, it can be left blank (omitted) because it is an end parameter. (b) When the parameter involved is an interior one (like P in the PMT function), a comma must be put in its position. 1.46 Spreadsheet shows relations only in cell reference format.

The first four steps are: Define objective, information collection, alternative definition and estimates, and criteria for decision-making. Objective: Select the most economic alternative that also meets requirements such as production rate, quality specifications, manufacturability for design specifications, etc. Information: Each alternative must have estimates for life (likely 10 years), AOC and other costs (e.g., training), first cost, any salvage value, and the MARR. The debt versus equity capital question must be addressed, especially if more than $5 million is needed. Alternatives: For both A and B, some of the required data to perform an analysis are: P and S must be estimated. AOC equal to about 8% of P must be verified. Training and other cost estimates (annual, periodic, one-time) must be finalized. Confirm n = 10 years for life of A and B. MARR will probably be in the 15% to 18% per year range. Criteria: Can use either present worth or annual worth to select between A and B. 2.

With the addition of C, this is now a make/buy decision. Economic estimates needed are:  Cost of lease arrangement or unit cost, whatever is quoted.  Amount and length of time the arrangement is available. Some non-economic factors may be:  Guarantee of available time as needed.  Compatibility with current equipment and designs.  Readiness of the company to enter the market now versus later 1 Solutions to end-of-chapter problems Engineering Economy, 7th edition Leland Blank and Anthony Tarquin Chapter 2 Factors: How Time and Interest Affect Money 2.1 (1) (P/F, 6%, 8) = 0.6274 (2) (A/P, 10%,10) = 0.16275 (3) (A/G,15%,20) = 5.3651 (4) (A/F,2%,30) = 0.02465 (5) (P/G,35%,15) = 7.5974 2.2 P = 21,300(P/A,10%,5) = 21,300(3.7908) = $80,744 2.3 Cost now = 142(0.60) = $85.20 Present worth at regular cost = 142(P/F,10%,2) = 142(0.8264) = $117.35 Present worth of savings = 117.35 – 85.20 = $32.15 2.4 F = 100,000(F/P,10%,3) + 885,000 = 100,000(1.3310) + 885,000 = $1,018,100 2.5 F = 50,000(F/P,6%,14) = 50,000(2.2609) = $113,045 2.6 F = 1,900,000(F/P,15%,3) F = 1,900,000(1.5209) = $2,889,710 2.7 A = 220,000(A/P,10%,3) = 220,000(0.40211) = $88,464 2.8 P = 75,000(P/F,12%,4) = 75,000(0.6355) = $47,663 2 2.9 F = 1.3(F/P,18%,10) = 1.3(5.2338) = 6.80394 ($6,803,940) 2.10 P = 200,000(P/F,15%,1) + 300,000(P/F,15%3) = 200,000(0.8696) + 300,000(0.6575) = $371,170 2.11 Gain in worth of building after repairs = (600,000/0.75 – 600,000) - 25,000 = 175,000 F = 175,000(F/P,8%,5) = 175,000(1.4693) = $257,128 2.12 F = 100,000(F/P,8%,4) + 150,000(F/P,8%,3) = 100,000(1.3605) + 150,000(1.2597) = $325,005 2.13 P = (110,000* 0.3)(P/A,12%,4) = (33,000)(3.0373) = $100,231 2.14 P = 600,000(0.04)(P/A,10%,3) = 24,000(2.4869) = $59,686 2.15 A = 950,000(A/P,6%,20) = 950,000(0.08718) = $82,821 2.16 A = 434(A/P,8%,5) = 434(0.25046) = $108.70 2.17 F = (0.18 – 0.04)(100)(F/A,6%,8) = 14(9.8975) = $138.57 2.18 Fdifference = 10,500(F/P,7%,18) - 10,500(F/P,4%,18) = 10,500(3.3799) - 10,500(2.2058) = $12,328 2.19 F = (200 – 90)(F/A,10%,8) = 110(11.4359) = $1,257,949 3 2.20 A = 350,000(A/F,10%,3) = 350,000(0.30211) = $105,739 2.21 (a) 1.
