Using PW for the ROR
Evaluation

• The main idea is to find out i* of the cash flow.


• Find the ∆i*B-A i.e. the i* of the incremental

ME-291 Engineering
cash flow.
• If ∆i*B-A < MARR, select alternative A

Economy
• If ∆i*B-A ≥ MARR, the extra investment is
justified; select alternative B.
• If the incremental i* is exactly equal to or very
near the MARR, non economic considerations
will most likely be used to help in the selection
of the “best” alternative.

Using AW for the evaluation of ROR

Two methods for AW


• Solve the cash flow of the incremental cash

ME-291 Engineering
flow using the AW analysis. (in this case we
have to use LCM if needed).

Economy
• Find the AW of both A and B separately and
then find i* by
0 = AWB – AWA
in the second type we don’t need to use the
LCM.
