3. THE ANNUAL WORTH METHOD
The AW of a project is an equal annual series of dollar amounts, for a stated study period, that is equivalent to the cash inflows and outflows at an interest rate that is generally the MARR. The AW is the annual equivalent revenues (or savings), R, minus annual equivalent expenses, E, less its annual equivalent capital recovery cost, CR. Criterion: A project is acceptable if AW ≥ 0 AW is calculated as follows: AW (i%) = R – E – CR(i%) The Capital Recovery (CR) amount for a project is the equivalent uniform annual cost of the capital invested. It is an annual amount that covers the following items: 1. Loss in value of the asset 2. Interest on invested capital (i.e., at the MARR) CR is computed with i = MARR using the following: CR (i%) = I (A/P, i%, N) – S (A/F, i%, N) where I = initial investment for the project S = salvage (residual) value at the end of the study period N = project study period As an example, consider a machine or other asset that will cost $10,000, last five years, and have a salvage (market) value of $2,000. The MARR is 10% per year. The CR amount is: CR (10%) = $10,000 (A/P, 10%,5) - $2,000 (A/F, 10%, 5) = $10,000 (0.2638) - $2,000 (0.1638) = $2,638 - $328 = $2,310 Sample problem1: (Same problem in PW and FW) A piece of new equipment has been proposed by engineers to increase the productivity of a certain manual welding operation. The investment cost is $25,000, and the equipment will have a market value of $5,000 at the end of a study period of five years. Increased productivity attributable to the equipment will amount to $8,000 per year after extra operating costs have been subtracted from the revenue generated by the additional production. If the firm‟s MARR is 20% per year, is this proposal a sound one? Use the AW method. Download 436.52 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
