An extension of the Guerrero et al. (2010) net present value (NPV) analysis using real options analysis (ROA) is offered to improve machinery replacement decisions. Specifically, the feasibilities of replacing natural gas irrigation systems with either electric or hybrid (electric/wind) systems are evaluated. Results indicate NPV and ROA criteria can yield opposite decisions depending on the stochastic nature of the parameters, reversibility of the investment, and flexibility of investment timing. For policy, NPV results indicate that replacing natural gas with a hybrid is on the cusp of being optimal. However, ROA indicates this NPV implication may not hold.

AbstractWhen you estimate the life cycle cost and benefit of your software product, your stakeholders should not only be assured that you will deliver value, but also be informed when that value is expected to manifest itself. Periodization is a common method for showing when a return of investment is expected, and one is often careful to express the present value of future cash (net present value) in such deliberations. This chapter shows how to carry out periodization using points. Periodized points then amount to plan templates that can be instantiated with monetary values according to most likely, bad-case, and good-case uncertainty assessments.

This study proposes economic evaluation of CO2 geological storage with enhanced oil recovery. The procedures consider capital expenditures and operating costs of infrastructures and revenues from oil recovery and carbon tax credits. Extensive CO2 geological storage with enhanced oil recovery simulations was conducted to determine the most promising scenario among cases, where miscibility was controlled by the addition of liquefied petroleum gas. The addition of liquefied petroleum gas into a CO2 injection stream can accelerate reduction of oil viscosity, interfacial tension, and oil density, which cause improved displacement efficiency. The larger was the amount of liquefied petroleum gas injected, the greater was the miscibility due to minimum miscibility pressure reduction, resulting in higher oil recovery and less CO2 sequestration. Although liquefied petroleum gas addition enhances the performance of CO2 enhanced oil recovery, economic analysis should be conducted for CO2 geological storage with enhanced oil recovery due to the higher price of liquefied petroleum gas than that of CO2. Net present value decreased from liquefied petroleum gas mole fraction of 0–2% and started to increase from mole fraction 2–13% due to the miscibility effect. Then, net present value started to decrease, because the purchasing and injecting prices of the required liquefied petroleum gas exceeded that of the oil produced. Economic evaluation showed that addition of 13% liquefied petroleum gas was the most promising scenario, with a net present value of 91 MM$. Thus, we confirmed an optimum liquefied petroleum gas concentration in the CO2 geological storage with enhanced oil recovery process.

This study aims to demonstrate computation in the techno-economic analysis of the production of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) using the precipitation method on an industrial scale. This evaluation is based on the perspective of technical and economic evaluation. Several economic evaluation parameters were analyzed to obtain potential information from the manufacture of Al2O3 nanoparticles based on gross profit margin, payback period, and cumulative net present value. The results of this study identified that the manufacture of Al2O3 nanoparticles using the precipitation method could be done industrially. Based on the engineering perspective, Al2O3 nanoparticles can be produced as much as 6.9 tons and earn an annual profit of 144,635.69 USD with a period of 20 years. To ensure that this project can be carried out, an economic evaluation is made based on estimates of ideal and non-ideal conditions, including tax increases, sales changes, raw material prices, utility prices, and labor’s salary. This study is expected to provide information for the manufacture of Al2O3 nanoparticles using the precipitation method on an industrial scale.

ABSTRACT Introduction Hospital projects are highly cost intensive and therefore, it takes few years to become a profit oriented entity. The success of these hospital projects can be measured through various economic evaluation methods. Economic evaluation can also be called as an effort to analyze inputs and outputs together and logically help decision makers evaluate whether a certain level of output is worth the amount of resources expended to produce it. Method of the study The present study was planned to do the economic evaluation of an Eye hospital, in Haryana state. Two parameters were considered for evaluating the project, i.e. Net Present Value (NPV) and Profitability Index (PI). The data used in the study was from 2010-2011 to 2016-2017. This includes actual and projected data. Result and conclusion A positive NPV explain the project is worthwhile and making profits, with current cost and revenue projections. PI for this center is found out to be 3.47 which also emphasize that the project is a value for money proposition. How to cite this article John S, Dabas K, Naseem I.

In this paper, two lighting retrofit scheme is simulated to evaluate the amount of saving that the commercial building owner would benefits. Simple payback period and net present value are the method used to qualify the retrofit scheme to be profitable or otherwise. The analysis include the effect of electricity price, energy saving percentage, technology price and efficacy future values towards the economic return. The retrofit scheme presented only covers for the building that already has existing lighting equipment and comply towards the standard set by the international technical society. All variables and assumption are based on latest report by the world governing bodies and regulation.
