The document outlines various financial evaluation methods for investment decisions, including Present Worth (PW), Annual Worth (AW), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), External Rate of Return (ERR), and Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR). It presents multiple scenarios involving investments in gaming laptops, houses, and projects, requiring calculations to determine the most economical options based on specified Minimum Attractive Rates of Return (MARR). Additionally, it discusses the differences between financial and economic analysis, as well as the drawbacks of the IRR method.

new accessories with its salvage value 50000 at the end of 5 years. The shop also has hiring facility with Rs.60000 per year
for 5 years. Determine which option is economical to student @MARR 10%. (Using PW method)
2. A man bought a new house 5 years ago at [Link] house needed Rs.50000 to maintain in annual basis. At the end
of 3rd year Rs.100000 was spent on roofing and water proofing, now if a man wants to sell a house for 1100000 (as market
value). He was receiving rent amount of Rs. 100000 per year from the beginning of each year from the house. Evaluate the
man’s investment is economical or not economical by AW method when MARR is 12%. (Using AW method)
3. Evaluate both type of Payback period (Simple and Compounded). MARR= 13% per year.
