Two advanced thermal insulating and anti- condensation protection alternatives have been proposed for new Antarctica marine vessels subject to the harsh marine environment. One alternative must be selected. Estimated savings from reduced total installation and maintenance costs over conventional insulation are the following: Which alternative should be recommended based on the present worth method and an actual- dollar analysis? Use an inflation- free MARR of 8%, an inflation rate of 8% per year, and a study period of 7 years. Assume negligible salvage values.
