20. 20 The annual cash flow analysis criteria is based on converting all the cost of a project or an equipment over its entire life to an Equivalent Uniform Annual Cost ( EUAC) using the compound factors 7.2 ANNUAL CASH FLOW

21. 21 If a person purchased a new car for 6000 m.u. and sold it 7 years later for 2000 m.u., what is the equivalent uniform annual cost if he spent 750 m.u., per year for upkeep and operation? Use an interest rate of 15 % per year. Example 7.1 Solution: EUAC = 750 + 6000 (A/P, 15%, 3) – 2000 (A/F, 15%, 3) = 750 + 6000 (0.015 (1.15) 3 / (1.15 3 – 1)) – 2000 (0.15 / (1.15 3 – 1)) = m.u. 2801.92 per year.

22. 22 7.3 Alternative selection using EUAC 1.Disbursements (irregular and uniform) must be converted to an equivalent uniform annual cost 2.EUAC are calculated for each alternative for one life cycle. NB: EUAC for one cycle of an alternative represents the equivalent uniform annual cost of that alternative forever.

24. 24 Compare the following machines on the basis of their equivalent uniform annual cost. Use an interest rate of 18% per year. Comparison point New MachineUsed Machine Capital cost44000 m.u.23000 m.u. Annual operating cost 7000 m.u.9000 m.u. Annual repair cost 210 m.u.350 m.u. Overhauling2500 m.u. every 5 years1900 m.u. every 2 years Salvage value4000 m.u. after 15 years3000 m.u. after 8 years Example 7.2 Cash flows of the two machines.

25. 25 EUAC new = 7,210 + (44000 – 2500) (A/P, 18%, 15) + 2500 (A/P, 18%, 5) – 4000 (A/F, 18%, 15) = 7210 + 41500 (0.18 (1.18 15 ) / (1.18 15 – 1)) + 2500 (0.18 (1.18 5 ) / (1.18 5 – 1)) – 4000 (0.18/ (1.18 15 -1)) EUACnew = 16094.55 m.u. per year.

26. 26 EUAC used = 9350 + (23000 – 1900) (A/P, 18%, 8) + 1900 (A/P, 18%, 2) – 3000 (A/F, 18%, 8) = 21100 (0.18 (1.18) 8 / (1.18 8 – 1)) + 9350 + 1900 (0.18 (1.18) 2 / (1.18 2 – 1)) – 3000 (0.18 / (1.18 8 – 1)) = 15542.4 m.u. per year.

27. 27 Since we have found that: EUACused <EUACnew Then it would be more economical to purchase the used machine instead of the new one. Providing that both have same productivity and quality. NB: The overhauling cost is not taken into consideration at the end of the equipment life.

30. 30 A moving and storage company is considering two possibilities for warehouse operations. Proposal 1 requires the purchase of a fork lift for m.u.5000 and 500 pallets that cost m.u.3 each. The average life of a pallet is assumed to be 2 years, lf the fork lift is purchased, the company must hire an operator for m.u.9000 annually and spend m.u.600 per year in maintenance and operation, the life of the fork lift is expected to be 12 years, with m.u.700 salvage value. Alternatively, proposal 2 requires that the company hire two people to operate power-driven hand trucks at a cost of m.u.7500 per person. One hand truck will be required at a cost of m.u.900 and the hand truck will have a life of years with no salvage value. If the interest rate is l2% per year, which alternative should be selected? Example 7.3

31. 31 First proposal EUAC 1 = 5000 (A/P, 12%, 12) + 2500 (A/P,12%,2) + 9600 – 700 (A/F,12%,12) = 5000 (0.12 (1.12) 12 / (1.12 12 – 1)) + 2500 (0.12 (1.12) 2 / (1.12 2 – 1)) + 9600 – 700 (0.12/(1.1212-1)) EUAC 1 = m.u. 11857.423 per year.

32. 32 EUAC 2 = 900 (A/P, 12%, 6) + 7500 × 2 = 900 (0.12 (1.12) 6 / (1.12 6 – 1)) + 7500 × 2 = m.u. 15218.903 per year. Second Proposal Select proposal 1 because EUAC1<EUAC2

33. 33 The warehouse for a large furniture manufacturing company currently requires too much energy for heating and cooling because of poor insulation. The company is trying to decide between foam and fiber-glass insulation. The initial cost of the foam insulation will be m.u.35000 with no salvage value. The foam will have to be painted every 3 years as a cost of m.u.2500 the energy saving is expected to be m.u.6000 per year. Alternatively, fiber-glass can be installed for m.u.12000 the fiber- glass would not be salvageable either, but there would be no maintenance costs. If the fiber-glass would save m.u.2500 per year in energy costs, which method of insulation should be company use at an interest rate of 15% per year? Use a 24-year study period. Example 7.4

34. 34 Foam: EUAC foam = (35000-2500) (A/P, 15%,24)+2500(A/P,15%,3)-6000 =32500(0.15(1.15) 24 / (1.15 24 -1)) +2500(0.15(1.15) 3 /(1.15 3 -1))- 6000 = m.u.146.412 per year (costs) Fiber-glass: EUAC f =12000(A/P,15%,24)-2500 =12000(0.15(1.15) 24 /(1.15 24 -1))-2500 = - m.u.634.84 per year (saving) Then the company should use fiber glass for insulation as this insulation method would result in savings for the company.

41. 41 7.4 EUAC FOR INFINITE PERIOD But for an alternative with an infinite life in a problem with an infinite analysis period: EUAC for infinite analysis period = P(A/P, i,∞) + any other annual costs When n = ∞, we have A = P × i and, hence, (A/P, i, ∞) equals i. EUAC for infinite analysis period = P × i + any other annual costs EUAC are calculated for any alternative for one life cycle, however, EUAC for one cycle of an alternative represents the equivalent uniform annual cost of that alternative forever. EUAC for infinite analysis period = EUAC for limited life n

42. 42 Example 7.7 In the construction of the conduit to expand the water supply of a city, there are two alternatives for a particular portion of the conduit. Either a tunnel can be constructed through a mountain, or a pipeline can be laid to go around the mountain. If there is a permanent need for the conduit, should the tunnel or the pipeline be selected for this particular portion of the conduit? Assume a 6% interest rate. Tunnel through mountainPipeline around mountain Initial costm.u.5.5 millionm.u.5 million Maintenance00 Useful lifePermanent50 years Salvage value00

43. 43 Tunnel: For the tunnel, with its permanent life, we want (A/P,6%,oo). For an infinite life, the capital recovery is simply interest on the invested capital. So (A/P,6%,oo) = i EUAC = P × i = m.u. 5.5 million × (0.06) = m.u. 330000 Pipeline: EUAC = m.u. 5 million (A/P, 6%, 50) = m.u. 5 million (0.0634) = m.u. 317000 For fixed output, minimize EUAC. Select the pipeline Solution

44. 44 The difference in annual cost between a long life and an infinite life is small unless an unusually low interest rate is used. In example 7.7 the tunnel is assumed to be permanent. For comparison, compute the annual cost if an 85-year life is assumed for the tunnel? EUAC = m.u. 5.5 million (A/P,6%,85) = m.u. 5.5 million (0.0604) = m.u. 332,000 The difference in time between 85 years and infinity is great indeed, yet the difference in annual costs is very small.
