Answer:
Option A is the cheapest.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The engineering department estimates costs of $450,000 for the first year. It is estimated that if process and plant alterations are made, the waste treatment cost will decline $43,000 each year. As an alternative, a specialized firm, Hydro-Clean, has offered a contract to process the waste liquids for 15 years for $225,000 per year.
We need to use the following formula and chose the smallest net present value:
NPV= Io +∑ [Cf/(1+i)^n]
Option A:
Io= 407,000
Year cost= 43,000
NPV= 734,061
Option B:
Yearly cost= 225,000
NPV= 1,936,368
Answer:
910.18
Explanation:
After Chin's down payment the amount borrowed is ...
(1 - 20%)($180,000) = 0.80·$180,000 = $144,000
The amount of the payment is given by the amortization formula ...
A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt))
for P borrowed at rate r for t years, compounded n times per year.
A = 144000(0.065/12)/(1 -(1 +.065/12)^(-12·30)) = 910.18
The monthly loan payments will be 910.18.
