QUESTION FOUR,
(@)Enumerate any five (5) major factors that could actually influence your decision to replace an in -
house production facility.
(0). An in - house production facility was bought for N380, 000:00; eight (8) years ago, It has an
estimated useful life span of twenty (20) years, an annual operating cost of N90, 000:00 and a salvage
value of N15, 00:00. Presently, a new multipurpose production facility intended to boost production
as well as the quality of the product wil
cost ¥ 480,000:00, with an estimated useful life span of
twenty five (25) years, an annual operating cost of ¥ 40, 000:00 and a salvage value of N20, 000:00. If,
however, the rate of capital recovery is fifteen per cent (15 %) at an estimated life span of fifteen (15)
years, advise Management on the purchase / replacement of the in ~ house production facility.
QUESTION FIVE,
@). Briefly explain the press work operation, extrusion and classify it accordingly.
(b). The slug going through the extrusi
process of Fig Q5 (b) has yield stress in pure shear given a:
SON /mm* with an initial diameter of 63mm and a final diameter of 7mm. Estimate the actual extrusion
