Annual Worth Analysis
Principle:Measure investment worth on annual basis
Benefit:: By knowing annual equivalent worth, we can:
Seek consistency ofreport format
Determineunit cost(or unit profit)
Facilitate unequal project lifecomparison

Equivalent Annual Cost
When only costs areinvolved, the EAmethod is called theequivalent annualcost.
Revenues mustcover two kinds ofcosts: Operatingcostsand capitalcosts.
