Hydraulic fracturing (fracking) has the potential to significantly increase the amount of natural gas produced in the United States. If a large percentage of factories and utility companies use natural gas, what will happen to output, the price level, and employment as fracking becomes more widely used?
Equipment needed at a Valero Corporation refinery for the conversion of corn stalk to ethanol, a cleaner-burning gasoline additive, will cost $175,000 and have net cash flows of $35,000 the first year, increasing by $10,000 per year over the life of 5 years. Determine the AW amounts at different MARR values to determine when the project switches from financially justified to unjustified. (HINT: start at 12% per year and increase by 1% per year)
