A convention center is considering the installation of occupancy sensors to reduce the cost of lighting and temperature control in rooms that may be frequently unoccupied. 2 different sensors are being evaluated. Sensor A has a fixed delay but can cause frequent on/off cycling of the lights, HVAC, and ventilation systems. Sensor B is a self-optimizing sensor that uses recent room utilization to optimize the delays resulting in higher savings and less frequent cycling of systems. There are 74 rooms in the convention center. Installation of Sensor A in each room will cost $70/room and result in annual savings of approximately 900 kWh/room. Installation of Sensor B in each room will cost $140/room and result in annual savings of approximately 1,050 kWh/room. The cost of electricity is $0.04/kWh. MARR is 12%/yr. Compare the future worth of each alternative (including do nothing) over a 10-year planning horizon using an investment portfolio approach, including residual capital in the investment pool.

1. The future worth for "do nothing" is $
2. The future worth for sensor A is $
3. The future worth for sensor B is $
4. Carry all interim calculations to 5 decimal places and then round your final answers to whole numbers. The tolerance is ±5.
alternative is preferred.

In the fall, jay thompson decided to live in a university dormitory. he signed a dorm contract under which he was obligated to pay the room rent for the full college year. one clause stated that if he moved out during the year, he could sell his dorm contract to another student who would move into the dormitory as his replacement. the dorm cost was $5000 for the two semesters, which jay had already paid a month after he moved into the dorm, he decided he would prefer to live in an apartment. that week, after some searching for a replacement to fulfill his dorm contract, jay had two offers. one student offered to move in immediately and to pay jay $300 per month for the eight remaining months of the school year. a second student offered to move in the second semester and pay $2500 to jay. jay estimates his food cost per month is $500 if he lives in the dorm and $450 if he lives in an apartment with three other students. his share of the apartment rent and utilities will be $404 per month. assume each semester is 4.5 months long. disregard the small differences in the timing of the disbursements or receipts. what is the cost of the cheapest alternative?
