Homework #8 Questions : A ready-mix concrete producer is considering to install a new mixer system:
at rate of return 10% determine which system should be installed using B/C analysis? Solutions : Benefit/ cost ratio analysis :
From equation
Modified B/C
Conventional B/C :
- includes operation & maintenance cost - initial investment replaces cost as denominator
B/C
B D O&M I
Calculation can be made in present worth, future worth or annuity With : B = Benefit ; D = Disbenefit ; C = Cost ; I = Initial Cost ; O&M = Operation &maintenance / AOC (Annual Operating Cost) In this case , Assume using annual worth analysis
For system A : Cash flow diagram. SV = $221500

For conclusion after we compare system A, B & C, we chose system C because it has more benefit - cost ratio.
