1Solutions to end-of-chapter problemsBasics of Engineering Economy, 2ndeditionLeland Blank and Anthony TarquinChapter 1Foundations of Engineering Economy1.1If the alternative that is actually the best oneis not even recognized as analternative, it obviously will not be able to be selected by using any economicanalysis tools.1.2Non-economic factors are (b), (c), (e) and (f): morale, goodwill,publicacceptanceand aesthetics,respectively.1.3Revenues and costs are examples of cash flows.1.4The analysis techniques that are used in engineering economic analysis are onlyas good as the accuracy of the cash flow estimates.1.5The do-nothing alternative represents theas-isorstatus quocondition.1.6Evaluation criterion refers to the measurement standard or procedure that is usedto determine which alternative is “best”.1.7In engineering economy, the evaluation criterion is financial units (dollars, pesos,etc).1.8Intangible factors are non-economic considerations that may have to be taken intoaccount in identifying the best alternative.1.9Examples of intangible factors are goodwill, morale, convenience, friendship,implementation know-how, aesthetics, public acceptance1.10Time value of money means that there is a certain worth in having money and thatworth changes as a function of time.1.11Interest is a manifestation of the time value of money.1.12The most important fundamental dimension in economic analysis is time becauseof time value of money.1.13The term that describes compensation for “renting” of money is time value ofmoney, which manifests itself as interest.1.14When an interest rate does not include the time period, the time period is assumedto be one year.

21.15The original amount of money in a loan transaction is known as the principal.1.16Minimum attractive rate of return is the lowest rate of return (interest rate)on aprojectthatcompanies or individuals consider to be high enough to induce themto invest their money.1.17When the yield on a U.S.Government Bond is 3% per year, investors areexpecting the inflation rate to be near zero.1.18(a) Payment = 1,600,000(1.10)(1.10) = $1,936,000(b) Interest = total amt paidprincipal= 1,936,000-1,600,000= $336,0001.19(a) Equivalent cost in 1 year = 38,000 + 38,000(0.10)= $41,800(b) Since $41,600 is less than $41,800, the firm should remodel 1ater (i.e. 1yearfrom now).1.20P = 50,000/1.08= $46,296.301.21Rate ofreturn = (1,450,000/10,000,000)(100%)= 14.5% per year1.22Rate of return = (45/966)(100%)= 4.7%1.23Rate of increase = [(2922)/22](100%)= 31.8%1.24Interest rate = (275,000/2,000,000)(100%)= 13.75%1.25Rate of return = (2.3/6)(100%)= 38.3%1.26F = P(1 + i)2,360,000 = 2,000,000(1 + i)i =0.18(18%)1.27F =P(1 + i)53,000,000 = P(1 + 0.10)P= $48,181,818

A personalmoral is the translation of a common moral into that which an individual believesand uses as guidance for their own decisions and actions.1.66A code of ethics can be used as an evaluation measure for the decision and actionsof an individual who works in the discipline that honors the code.1.67(a) Assuming that Carol’s supervisor is a trustworthy and ethical person himself,going to her supervisor and informinghim of her suspicion is probably thebest of these options. This puts Carol on record (verbally) as questioningsomething she heard at an informal gathering.(b)Another good option is to go to Joe one-on-one and inform him of herconcern about what she heard him say at lunch. Joe may not be aware he is onthe bid evaluation team and the potential ethical consequences if he acceptsthe free tickets from Dryer.
