A simple, direct space heating system is currently being used in a professional medical office complex. An upgraded "variable ai

Ivan

Answer:

Since the present worth (PW) is $56,459.65 and positive, the new system should be purchased.

Explanation:

C = Cost of the upgraded "variable air-volume system" retrofit = $200,000

S = Residual value of the system = $20,000

n = Estimated life of the upgraded "variable air-volume system" retrofit = 8

r = cost of capital per year = 12%, or 0.12

P = Amount of power savings per year = Number of kilo-Watt hours per year * Cost of electricity per kilo-Watt hour = 500,000 * $0.10 = $50,000

Using the formula for calculating the present value (PV) or ordinary annuity, the PV of P can be calculated:

PV of P = P * ((1- (1/(1 + r))^n) / r) = $50,000 * ((1- (1/(1 + 0.12))^8) / 0.12) = $248,381.99

The PV of the residual value (PV of S) can be calculated as follows:

PV of S = S / (1 + r)^n = $20,000 / (1 + 0.12)^8 = $8,077.66

The present worth (PW) can now be calculated as follows:

PW = PV of P + PV of S - C = $248,381.99 + $8,077.66 - $200,000 = $56,459.65

Since the present worth (PW) is $56,459.65 and positive, the new system should be purchased.

The Trash Track project is a MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) project that investigates the understanding of the 'removal-chain' in urban areas and focuses on how pervasive technologies sensors and mobile technologies can expose the challenges of waste management and sustainability. 
The trash track project monitors the movement of trash items to improve efficiency of management processes. Digital tags are added to trash and then followed it as it moved through the city’s sanitation system.
