Solutions included for problems 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34, 37, 40, and 43

8.1 (a) The rate of return on the increment has to be larger than 18%.
(b) The rate of return on the increment has to be smaller than 10%.

8.4 The rate of return on the increment of investment is less than 0.

8.7 (a) Incremental investment analysis is not required. Alternative X should be


selected because the rate of return on the increment is known to be lower
than 20%
(b) Incremental investment analysis is not required because only Alt Y has ROR
greater than the MARR
(c) Incremental investment analysis is not required. Neither alternative should be
selected because neither one has a ROR greater than the MARR.
(d) The ROR on the increment is less than 26%, but an incremental investment
analysis is required to determine if the rate of return on the increment equals or
exceeds the MARR of 20%
(e) Incremental investment analysis is not required because it is known that
the ROR on the increment is greater than 22%.

8.16 0 = -10,000 + 1200(P/A,i,4) + 12,000(P/F,i,2) + 1000(P/F,i,4)

Solve for i by trial and error or Excel


i = 30.3% (Excel)
Select machine B.

8.19 Find P to yield exactly 50% and the take difference.


0 = -P + 400,000(P/F,i,1) + 600,000(P/F,i,2) + 850,000(P/F,i,3)
P = 400,000(0.6667) + 600,000(0.4444) + 850,000(0.2963)

8.34 (a) Find ROR for each increment of investment:

E vs F: 20,000(0.20) + 10,000(i) = 30,000(0.35)


i = 65%

E vs G: 20,000(0.20) + 30,000(i) = 50,000(0.25)


i = 28.3%

E vs H: 20,000(0.20) + 60,000(i) = 80,000(0.20)


i = 20%

F vs G: 30,000(0.35) + 20,000(i) = 50,000(0.25)


i = 10%

F vs H: 30,000(0.35) + 50,000(i) = 80,000(0.20)


i = 11%

G vs H: 50,000(0.25) + 30,000(i) = 80,000(0.20)


i = 11.7%

(b) Revenue = A = Pi
E: A = 20,000(0.20) = $4000
