Yearly Costs $4,000 per trip x 20 passenger's x 3 trips/week x 52 weeks/yr. Benefits 0 Find PWB and PWC, then NPW for both Alt. Make the choice

Explanation / Answer

Ans:- For corporate Jet Alt:-

PWB = $2,000,000/(1+0.15)^15 = $245,790.8

Total cost in 15 years = Crew cost + Fuel cost + Landing cost + Maintenance + Insurance + Catering cost

= 223000 + 2948400 + 78000 + 237500 + 166000 + 224640 = $3,877,540

So, PWC = $3,877,540/(1+0.15)^15 = $476,531.9

NPW = PWB - PWC = 245790.8 - 476,531.9 = -$230,741

For commercial airline:-

PWB = 0

PWC = 4000*20*3*52 = $12,480,000

NPW = PWB-PWC = -$12,480,000

So Coporate jet Alt is beenficial.
