Analysis period, denoted by T, may be the same, shorter or longer than the useful
life of a project
Principle:
❑Cost projects – minimization of costs
❑Revenue projects – maximization of profit

Take note of the year when 1 cycle ends and the new cycle begins.
For example: in Machine A CFD, at the end of year 6, Salvage Value for the 1st cycle and First Cost for 2nd
cycle will be present

LCM = 18 years
Calculate the present worth for 18 yrs for alternative A
PWA = -11,000 - 3,500 (P|A, 15%, 18) + (1,000-11,000)
(P|F, 15%, 6) + (1,000-11,000) (P|F, 15%, 12) + 1,000

• Study period, T, can be less or greater than useful life (n). One technique is to assign the study
period equal to the useful life of one of the alternatives (one less modification of CFD).
• Study period approach is often used in replacement analysis.
• Usually applied in feasibility studies.
• The time horizon chosen may be relatively short
• Also useful when LCM of alternatives yields unrealistically long time horizons (i.e LCM of 7 and
10 years)

on a 3-year lease and a total cost of $134,000 per year based on a 1-yr lease. Which

Annual Worth Analysis
Principle: Measure an
investment worth on annual
basis
❑ Benefits: By knowing the annual
equivalent worth, we can:
❑ Seek consistency of report
format
❑ Determine the unit cost (or unit
profit)
❑ Facilitate the unequal project
life comparison
Machine B:
AWB = - 9,900 - [36,000(A/P,15%,10) - 3,000 (A/F,15%,10)]
= - 9,900 - 36,000 (0.19925) + 3,000 (0.04925)
= $-16,925
AWB over 10 years = AWB over LCM 30 yrs = -16,925
NOTE:
This is a study period problem. So we must consider all
cash flows only for the study period (4 years), and use
the estimated market values.

CR
I
Compute for CR:
Example: n – 10 years, T = 6 years CR(i%) = I (A/P, i%,N) - SV (A/F, i%,N)
To compute for MVT :
Get the PW at EOY 6 of SV
I
MVT = CR (P/A, i , n-T) + SV (P/F, i, n-T)

EXAMPLE
Two chocolate factories are on sale. One is located in London
and produces chocolate truffles and chocolate bars. The other
one is located at Rio de Janeiro and produces chocolate squares
and bars. You have gathered the following details from the
factories:
London Rio de Janeiro
Investment $15 M $8 M
Annual Net Revenues $3.62 M $1.78 M
Factory Life (years) 15 20
Salvage Value at n $6 M $2.5 M
If you plan be a chocolatier for only 15 years and you have set
your MARR to be 20%, which chocolate factory should you buy?
Use IMV technique and PW Method.
PWL = 2.31 M PWR = 0.7 M → Select London
