Easy to use software demonstrates the procedures to estimate the net present value of industrial process plants. the calculation involves, fixed capital investment, operating labour,utility costs,raw materials &amp\; profits and production costs and m ChemEng Economics Calculator was mainly made to do the basic method of estimating the Net Present Value of a process plant. This easy to use software also include few small calculators, below is a list of the main features:(A) Net Present Value- the software goes through a series of calculations to do the estimate!. Starting from,1.Fixed Capital Investment: the ability to chose from "Purchased Cost&quot\; of plant items, hence the estimation of FIXED&TOTAL CAPITAL INVESTMENT (Direct and Indirect Costs), OR "Installed Costs&quot\; of plant items where the software will use a FIXED CAPITAL INVESTMENT multiplyer to take into accout the additional cost associated with building the plant.2.Operating Labour: through a basic series of "Auxiliary Facilities&quot\; and "Process Equipment&quot\; lists the software will estimate the TOTAL NUMBER OF OPERATOR NEEDED &amp\; ANNUAL COST OF OPERATING LABOUR. You simply enter the "Expected Annual Salary of Operators in The Plant&quot\; and "The Number of Units", the software will then calculate the "THE NUMBER OF OPERATORS NEEDED PER SHIFT&quot\; .3. Utilities: To calculate the "TOTAL UTILITY COSTS/YEAR".4.Raw Materials &amp\; Profits:Calculates the ANNUAL cost of Raw Materials and ANNUAL Products Profits.5.Production Costs: Calculate the ANNUAL Production Costs (customised calculations).6.Assumptions: The software uses assumptions to estimate the NET PRESENT VALUE.You can customise the assumptions to suit your needs, "Plant Construction Period up to 5 Years", "Depreciation Period from 3 to 20 Years", "Plant Operation Period up to 20 Years", you can also set the "Tax Rate %", "Discounted Cash Flow Rate %&quot\; and "Salvage Value %", You can also SET INFLATION RATE.
