For the four revenue alternatives below, use the ROR method results to determine:

(a) Which one(s) to select, if MARR = 17% per year and the proposals are independent.

(b) Which one to select, if MARR = 14.5% per year and the alternatives are mutually exclusive.

(c) Which one to select, if MARR = 10% per year and the alternatives are mutually ex­clusive.


(a) Select all proposals with overall ROR ? 17%

Select B and C

(b) Compare alternatives incrementally after ranking: DN, A, B, C, D

A to DN: ?i* = 11.7% < 14.5% Eliminate A
B to DN: ?i* = 22.2% > 14.5% Eliminate DN
C to DN: ?i* = 17.9% > 14.5% Eliminate DN
D to DN: ?i* = 15.8% > 14.5% Eliminate DN
Retain B, C, D

C vs. B: ?i* = 10.0% < 14.5% Eliminate C
D vs. B: ?i* = 10.0% < 14.5% Eliminate D
Select alternative B

(c) Compare alternatives incrementally after ranking: DN, A, B, C, D

A to DN: ?i* = 11.7% > 10.0% eliminate DN
B to A: ?i* = 43.3% > 10.0% eliminate A
C to B: ?i* = 10.0% = 10.0% eliminate B
D to C: ?i* = 10.0% = 10.0% eliminate C

Select alternative D
