11 Method Chosen for Economic Analysis

 The method which we used for economic analysis of machines is net

present worth method.
 We calculated the NPV of machines in the next slides and then did their
comparison.

15 Two Alternate Solutions for
Replacement
 Found two alternate solutions
 One is center lathe machine from China
 And the other is from Japan
 Both are meeting the requirements of company
 Both has same size, same productivity rates
 But the initial investment cost, annual expenses and annual revenues for
both are different
 Specification of both machines are in the next slide

24 Conclusions And Recommendations

As the NPV for machine A in the workshop came lower than machine B and C,
so it means machine B and C will generate more profit than machine A but if
we compare machines B and C then as it is clear from above calculations
NPV for machine B is higher than C . So, it means machine B will generate
more profit for the company. So, we will recommend machine B for the
replacement in central mechanical workshop at KAPCO.
