Economics URGENT PLEASE** As a PMO officer, you are asked to do an evaluation for a natural gas pipeline right in the middle of the project’s planned schedule. There are concerns that it will go over budget and schedule because 40 million dollars has been spent in the project so far. According to the project charter, the pipeline length is 72 km and must be completed in 6 months, with a budget of 57.6 million AUD. You performed an inspection and find out that installation of 30 km of pipeline has been completed. Using earned value analysis, answer the following questions: A) What is the earned value (EV) for this project at the time of inspection (month 3)? B) What is the planned value (PV) for this project at the time of inspection? C) Calculate the Schedule variance (SV) and the cost variance (CV) at month 4. What do they mean? D) Calculate the Schedule performance index (SPI) and the cost performance index (CPI) at the time of inspection. What do they mean? [ E) According to your…

SITUATION3: Under the data collected from the office of Department of Transportation and DPWH over the last 5 years indicate that for each fatality, there are 40 non-fatal injury accidents ($1500 present cost each) and 300 property damage accidents ($2000 present cost each). What is the breakeven value of statistical Me (VSL) needed to justify a highway project if i is 8%? The death rate on a particular three-lane road is 8 per 100 million vehicle-miles. Adding a lane would reduce this to 5 per million, and other accidents would cost $1.5M per mile to build, and annual maintenance would be 3% of the first cost. Assume that the lane would last 40 years. The road carries 10000 vehicle per day. Use reduction factor of 3/8 for all accidents. (Non-CE students no need to answer this item).

6. Machine A and Machine B are being considered for the production of a part of a product. The impor- tant differences between the machines are: Machine A Machine B 100 parts/hr 130 parts/hr Production rate Hours available for production Rejection rate 7 hrs/day 6 hrs/day 3 % 10 % The material cost is $6.00 per part, the operator cost is $15.00 per hour, and the variable overhead cost is $5.00 per hour. All defect-free parts produced can be sold for $12 each, and the rejected parts have no value. Assume that the daily demand for this part is large enough that all defect-free parts can be sold. Which machine should be selected? • What should the rejection rate be for Machine B to be as profitable as Machine A?

A local government in Virginia is considering three different alternatives for a sewage treatment plant. The type of equipment and technology needed are quite different in each case. The following summarizes the economic data for all the alternatives Alt. B 5,600,000 600,000 1,000,000 Alt. A Alt. C Equipment costs O &M costs/year Annual benefits 4,350,000 450,000 640,000 6,500,000 750,000 1,300,000 The economic life of the project is 40 years. The locality's cost of funds is 8%. Use conventional benefit-cost analysis and incremental analysis to determine which alternative should be recommended. Note that doing nothing is not an alternative.
in building their plant, the officers of the international leather company had the choice between alternatives: one alternative is to build in metro manila where the plant would cost p2,000,000. labor would cost annually p120,000 and annual overhead p40,000. taxes and insurance would total 5% of the first cost of the plant. the second alternative would be to build in bulacan a plant costing p2,250,000. labor would cost annually p100,000 and overhead would be p55,000. taxes and insurance would total 3% of the first cost. the cost of raw materials would be the same in either plant. if capital must be recovered within 10 years and money is worth at least 20%, which site should the officers of the company choose?
