Chapter 1 Foundations of Engineering Economy 1.1 The four elements are cash flows, time of occurrence of cash flows, interest rates, and measure of economic worth. 1.2 (a) Capital funds are money used to finance projects. It is usually limited in the amount of money available. (b) Sensitivity analysis is a procedure that involves changing various estimates to see if/how

they affect the economic decision. 1.3 Any of the following are measures of worth: present worth, future worth, annual worth, race of return, benefit/cost ratio, capitalized cost, payback period, economic value added. 1.4 First cost: economic; leadership: non-economic; taxes: eco110111ic; salvage value: economic; morale: non-economic; dependability: non-economic; intlation: economic; profit: economic; acceptance: non-economic; ethics: non-economic; interest rate: economic.

1.5 Many sections could be identified. Some are: I.b; ll.2.a and b; 111.9.a and b. 1.6 Example actions are: • Try to talk them out of doing it 110\\1, explaining it is stealing • Try to get them to pay for their drinks • Pay for all the drinks himself • Walk away and not associate with them again 1.7 This is structured to be a discussion question; many responses are acceptable. It is an ethical question, but also a guilt-related situation. He can justify the result as an accident; he can feel justified by the legal fault and punishment he receives; he can get angry because it WAS an accident; he can become tormented over time due to the stress caused by accidently causing a child's death. 1

1.8 This is structured 10 be a discussion question; many responses are acceptable. Responses can vary from the ethical (stating the truth and accepting the consequences) to unethical (continuing to deceive himself and the instructor and devise some on-the-spot excuse).

Lessons can be learned from the experience. A few of them are: • Think before he cheats again. • Think about the longer-term consequences of unethical decisions. • Face ethical-dilemma situations honestly and make better decisions in real time.

Alternatively, Claude may learn nothing from the experience and continue his unethical practices. i = [(3,885,000 - 3,500,()()0)/3,500,()()0]* I 00% = I I o/o per year

i = (I J 25/12,500)* 100 = 9% i = (6160/56,000)* I 00 = 11 % i = (76()()/95,000)* 100 = 8% The $56,000 investment has the highest rate of rerurn.

1.13 The market interest rate is usually 3 - 4 % above the expected inflation rate. Therefore, Market rate is in the range 3 + 8 to 4 + 8 = 11 to 12% per year

1.14 PW= present worth; PY= present value; NPV = net present value; DCF = discounted cash flow; and CC= capitalized cost

1.15 P = $150,000; F = 'l; i = I I%; n = 7 1.16 P = 'I; F

1.20 fuel cost: outflow; pension plan contributions: outflow; passenger fares: inflow; maintenance: outflow; freight revenue: inflow; cargo revenue: inflow; extra bag charges: Inflow; water and sodas: outflow; advertising: outflow; landing fees: outflow; seat preference fees: inflow. 3
