One of six new techniques, or the current method, can be used to control mildly irritating chemical fume leakage into the surrounding air from a mixing machine. The estimated costs and benefits (in the form of reduced employee health costs) are given below for each method. Assuming that all methods have a infinite life with zero salvage value, determine which one should be selected, (if any) using a MARR of 14.4761059% per year compounded semi-annually, and the B/C method. Alternatives 2. 3 4. 18000 20000 25000 20000 20000 | 18000 22000 20000 28000 | 30000 Installed Cost, S 15000 AOC, S/year 10000 17000 29000 Benefits, S/year 15000 Which B/C ratio are you utilizing? What is the effective interest rate? One of six new techniques, or the current method, can be used to control mildly irritating chemical fume leakage into the surrounding air from a mixing machine.
