Unresourceful usage of rainwater continues to be a serious problem as this type of natural resource is still treated as wastewater that most often ends up directly in the sewer system. The aim of the article is to present a concept of sustainable rainwater management within a completed housing estate in Cracow (Poland). Sustainable solutions are proposed, such as rain gardens, soakaways, permeable surfaces, and infiltration boxes, limiting the surface runoff, feasible for implementation in an existing development. Their efficacy was shown by estimating the runoff reduction and two financial assessments: (1) the required investment costs converted to costs per 1 m2 of residential area and as per 1 household, and (2) the assessment of financial profitability by the rate of return and the payback period, which are the basic tool for making decisions by potential investors: developers and residents. On the cost side, investment costs are included, and on the benefit side, savings resulting from the reduction of national and municipal rainwater fees. The analysis also aims to examine the incentive nature of these fees. National rainwater drainage fees, which have been introduced to encourage rainwater retention, have low non-incentive rates and the potential benefits of reducing them maybe around 1% of investment capital, which gives a payback period of almost 100 years. Higher rates of municipal fees are more motivating for investors; the proposed concept of rainwater management can potentially bring savings of around 9% (rate of return), and investment can be recovered within 12 years.

The fish shelter port (TPI) is a need that needs to be prepared by local village officials and the government for every coastal village in Bengkalis Regency. This research was conducted in the Berancah village of Bantan District. The analysis in this study describes the economic feasibility mathematically for the construction of a fish storage port (TPI) by calculating the cost ratio (B / C ratio) benefit analysis, payback period (PP), net present value (NPV), and internal rate of return ( IRR). The results obtained from the NPV value (3,661,267,645), BCR value (0.943), IRR value of 10.01%, and PP are in the period of 30 years. Taken as a whole by standardizing the calculations, it can be concluded that the planned construction of a fish shelter in Berancah village is considered not economically feasible, but economic analysis is not merely a benchmark for feasibility, reviewed for the future many benefits will be received by the community around the location of the development plan so that it can improve the welfare of the community in Berancah village.

Abstract This study is focused on principles of rain gardens in landscape architecture and their application in Slovak conditions. Rain gardens can be seen as a part of sustainable design and application of ecological principles in changing natural conditions. The simplicity of a rain garden represents combination of rainwater management and flower planting, which is a strong landscaping element because of the connection between ecology and aesthetics. Plants used in rain gardens help to keep water by the root system and, after that, to transpire it. Another importance of this kind of arrangement is its simplicity and positive impact on creation of a new bio-retentive ecosystem, which is able to safely collect, absorb, filtrate and carry off rain water from paved areas. Many foreign countries have understood their importance and have already implemented them in new projects of public and private spaces. This paper also describes a theoretical planting proposal of a rain garden in a housing estate in the city of Nitra to demonstrate a real application of this technique in Slovak conditions.

The case study on rubber replanting in Musi Landas, South Sumatra shows that both, Sutardi formula (1973) and Jenahar's (1986) provide the some economic live which is 25 years for the area of 2577 ha with replanted area of 103,08 ha per year. The result shows attaints that the net present value (NPV) is Rp.1.6 nillion per ha with the investment payback period of 17 years and the internal rate of return (IRR) 16.15 % per year.The method used in this research is optimum replanting analysis method. The analical method shows that the cash flow method developed by Jenahar (1986) is simpler than Sutardi's marginal method (1973) and gives similar result in term of the rubber tree's economic life. However, the cash flow formula could be used for feasibility assessment

One of the reasons for the slow conversion program from gasoline to LPG/Vigas is the uncertainty of profit or loss. Therefore, this article presents a simple calculator to assess the feasibility of investing in vehicle conversion, from gasoline to LPG/Vigas. Input parameters include estimated annual mileage, fuel consumption, gasoline prices, LPG / Vigas prices, the cost of the converter kit and its installation, engine standardization costs, maintenance costs with gasoline, and maintenance costs with LPG considered to produce output parameters that include Break Even Point (BEP), Payback period (PP), Net Present Value (NPV), and Internal Rate of Return (IRR).

Commercial fish scale removers are very expensive.  This study was conducted in order to fabricate and test the performance of a low cost, stand-alone semi-manually operated fish scale remover.  The randomized complete block design (RCBD) quasi-experiment was used to test the capacity and efficiency of the semi-manually operated fish scale remover.  Three (3) different kinds of fish in Northern Samar (Bangus, Sagision and Kirawan) with three (3) different sizes of scales (Large, Medium and Small) were used in the testing of the fabricated fish scale remover at three (3) different speeds of the scaling drum (High, Medium and Low).  The results revealed that the higher the speed of the scaling drum, the higher is the scaling capacity of the manually-operated fish scale remover.  Likewise, the bigger the scales of fish being descaled, the higher is the scaling capacity of the manually-operated fish scale remover.  The average scaling capacity of the fish scale remover is higher than the average scaling capacity of an experienced fish vendors for kirawan and sagision but is lower than that of the experienced fish vendors for bangus.  On the other hand, the average scaling efficiencies of the machine for all the fish used in testing the machine were highest at medium speed setting of the scaling drum.  The cost and return analysis on the operation of the semi-manually operated fish scale remover revealed that it will have an annual net income of P 48,724.37, a payback period of 50 days, and a rate of return of 3.82.   The actual cost of constructing the semi-manually operated fish scale remover is ₱ 12,756.00.

The growing attention to environmental and energy issues led to the search for renewable energy sources, which is gaining more and more space. In this context, photovoltaic solar energy is considered one of the most promising because it has advantages, such as ease of operation, possibility of integration in buildings, low level of proliferation during an operation and great potential for power generation in Brazil. Therefore, this work aims at a proposal to implement a photovoltaic system connected to the grid (On-grid) as an alternative to reduce the cost of energy consumption in a residence in the municipality of Palmares-PE. For the dimensioning of the photovoltaic system it was considered the monthly energy consumption of the residence and an irradiation of the place. Finally, a cost analysis was carried out to implement the system, which revealed that the use of this energy is economical and feasible. The solar generation capacity was projected at 6,27 kWp. The value of the project was R $ 32,049.98 and the payback period was 3 years and 8 months. Considering a Minimum Attractiveness Rate (TMA) of 6.5%, the NPV was R $ 225,707.88 and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of the system was a percentage of 43.55%.
