The engineering calculation on the telecommunication project is needed to analyze the feasibility of the project and the total value of investments. As the Project Manager, you have to do the financial analysis of your telecommunication project to get the conclusion of whether this feasible to run the project or not. You have to prove your analysis by giving the project calculation in terms of Net Present Value (NPV), Present Worth Analysis, and Break-Even Point (BEP) based on the initial investment, % of interest, and the project period are given.
The Detail Situation:
The company is considering the installation of a high-end server for handling the system with the first initial cost [check point A]. This system will save $7,500,000 per year in spare part cost, but it will incur $2,750,000 in annual operating and maintenance expenditures. The salvage value at the end of the system’s X-year [check point B] life is [check point C].
At the end of the project, the company will invest the new server for the next X upcoming year [check point B] with initial the initial cost of $50,000,000. This new system will save $8,500,000 per year in spare part cost, but it will incur $3,850,000 in annual operating and maintenance expenditures. The salvage value at the end of the system’s X-year [check point B] is negligible.
There is another option to cover the requirement by combining 2
different situations. At the first X years [check point B], the
company will rent a high-end server for handling system the rent
cost $5,000,000/ year. There is no budget that needs to be
allocated for spare part cost, and it will incur $1,500,000 in
annual operating and maintenance expenditures. In the second
period, the company will invest the new server for the next X
upcoming year
[check point B] with initial the initial cost of $50,000,000. This new system will save $8,500,000 per year in spare part cost, but it will incur $3,850,000 in annual operating and maintenance expenditures. The salvage value at the end of the system is negligible.
If the company’s hurdle rate (MARR) is X% per year [check point D], which scenario that should be recommended for implementation?
Group C (att.list no 7- 9):
- The first initial cost [point A] = $35,000,000
- Project duration [point B] = 8 years
- The salvage value at the end of the system’s [point C] = $2.500,000.
- (MARR) is = 12 % per year.

The minimum wage is under hot debate not only among the media and politicians, but also among the economists. Some economists claim that a rise in the minimum wage will not result in job loss. Others argue that increasing the minimum wage will lead to large unemployment.

b, Some researchers who find no unemployment effect of raising the minimum wages appeal to the monopsony model as a better characterization of the low-skilled labor market. Justify their argument with graph.
