The chief engineer at Clean Water Engineering has established a capital investment limit of $710,000 for next year for projects related to concentrate management. (a) Select any or all of the following independent projects, using a MARR of 10% per year. (b) Use a spreadsheet to determine the miniĀ­mum annual NCF necessary to select any of the other viable bundles besides the one selected in part (a).




(b) Develop the spreadsheet so that the annual NCF values can be adjusted using Goal Seek. Functions are shown below.



Repeatedly apply Goal Seek to find NCF values that force the PW values to equal that of bundle 4, namely PW3 = $119,736, per the spreadsheet PW value for bundle 3. The spreadsheet for bundle 1 (project A) is shown below. NCF values for all bundles resulting from Goal Seek applications are as follows:

NCFA = $72,243 compared to the estimated $50,000

NCFB = $134,569 compared to the estimated $90,000

NCFAB = $169,039 compared to the estimated $140,000
