Summary of Practice4.1 This practice outlines a procedure for conducting anLCC analysis of two or more drainage pipe alternatives usingplastic pipe over a specified project design life. This practiceidentifies the project data and general ass

19、umptions needed forthe analysis and the method of computation.5. Significance and Use5.1 LCC analysis is an economic method to evaluate alter-natives that are characterized by differing cash flows over thedesignated project design life. The method entails calculatingthe LCC of each alternative capab

20、le of satisfying the functionalrequirements of the project and comparing them to determinewhich have the lowest estimated LCC over the project designlife.5.2 The LCC method is particularly suitable for determiningwhether the higher initial cost of an alternative is economicallyjustified by reduction

21、s in future costs (for example, operatingmaintenance, rehabilitation, or replacement) when compared toan alternative with lower initial costs but higher future costs. Ifa design alternative has both a lower initial cost and lowerfuture costs than other alternatives, an LCC analysis is notnecessary t

22、o show the former is the economically preferablechoice.6. Procedure6.1 The procedure for performing an LCC analysis fordrainage pipe applications is as follows:6.1.1 Identify project objectives, alternatives, and con-straints (6.2).6.1.2 Establish basic assumptions (6.3).6.1.3 Compile data (6.4).6.1

23、.4 Compute life cycle cost for each alternative (7.1).6.1.5 Evaluate results (7.2).6.2 Project Objectives, Alternatives, and Constraints:6.2.1 Specify the design objective that is to beaccomplished, identify alternative systems or designs thataccomplish that objective, and identify any constraints t

24、hatmay limit the options to be considered.6.2.2 An example is the design of a storm water drainagesystem for a residential development project. The system mustsatisfy mandated drainage system objectives, such as specifiedrainfall intensities and storm water runoff limits. Availablealternatives, such

25、 as different pipe materials and varyingconfigurations of catch basins, ponds, or underground deten-tion chambers may have different initial costs as well asexpected future costs. The system design may be constrainedby structural and hydraulic limits such as minimum andmaximum slopes and depth of bu

26、rial, limits on surface flows onstreets, etc.6.3 Basic Assumptions:6.3.1 Establish the uniform assumptions to be made in theLCC analysis of all alternatives. These assumptions include theselection of the discount rate, the treatment of inflation, generalinflation rate, the project design life, and t

27、he desired compre-hensiveness of the analysis.6.3.2 Discount RateThe discount rate selected shouldreflect the owners time value of money. That is, the discountrate should reflect the rate of interest that makes the ownerindifferent between paying or receiving a dollar now or at somefuture time. The

28、discount rate is used to convert costs occurringat different times to equivalent costs at a common point in time.6.3.2.1 There is no single correct discount rate for allowners. Selection of the discount rate should be guided by therate of return on alternative investment opportunities of com-parable

29、 risk (that is, the opportunity cost of capital), or, in thecase of some public organizations, on mandated or legislatedfederal or state requirements. (See Federal Office of Manage-ment and Budget.)6.3.2.2 The discount rate may include general price inflationover the study period. This discount rate

30、 is referred to as the“nominal” discount rate in this practice. The discount rate mayalso be expressed as the real earning power of money over andabove general price inflation, referred to as the “real” discountrate.6.3.2.3 A nominal discount rate (dn) and the correspondingreal discount rate (dr) ar

31、e related as follows:dr511dn11I2 1ordn5 11dr!11I! 2 1 (1)where:I = the rate of general price inflation.6.3.2.4 The same discount rate should be used in evaluatingeach design alternative. Annex A1 contains a procedure tofollow in developing the discount rate. This procedure may beapplied by those who

32、 wish to select their own values as well asthose who are required to follow mandated or legislatedrequirements.6.3.3 InflationThis practice is designed only to accommo-date a uniform rate of general inflation. Calculate the LCC inconstant dollar terms (not including general inflation) or incurrent d

33、ollar terms (including general inflation). If the latter isused, a consistent projection of general price inflation shall beused throughout the LCC analysis, including adjustment of thediscount rate to incorporate general inflation (6.3.2.2). Thepercentage change in GNP deflator and the Producers Pr

34、iceIndex are two broad indicators of general inflation.6.3.3.1 If the user desires or is required to treat inflation onan incremental (differential) basis, or uniquely to each indi-vidual cost component (for example, energy costs), consulteither TM-5-802-1 or Discount Factor Tables4, respectively.6.

35、3.4 Project Design LifeEstablish the project design life(3.1.9) from mandated public policy, legislated requirements,or selection by the owner based on situation requirements. Usethe same design life for each alternative under comparison andfor all categories of cost under consideration. The potenti

36、al forfuture obsolescence, that is, the potential that future changesmay modify drainage system requirements, should be consid-ered in selecting project design life.F1675 13 (2017)26.3.5 ComprehensivenessThe appropriate degree of preci-sion and detail to use in an LCC analysis is dependent upon thei

37、ntended use of the analysis. A less comprehensive or detailedanalysis may be sufficient to roughly rank many alternatives,whereas a more comprehensive analysis may be necessary toselect from among a few close alternatives. In any case,omitting significant factors from an LCC analysis diminishesthe u

38、sefulness of the results.6.3.6 Sensitivity AnalysisNo analysis is more precise thanthe accuracy of the data and assumptions used in the calcula-tion. When there is uncertainty regarding basic assumptions(for example, cost estimates, design life, discount rate, etc.)calculate the LCC for a range of a

39、ssumptions. The results ofthese calculations will show the user the extent to which theresults are sensitive to variations of the key assumptions.6.4 Compiling DataCompile the data specific to eachalternative under consideration.6.4.1 Initial CostsThe estimated dollar amount of all costsis required

40、to bring the alternative system to a point offunctional readiness.6.4.2 Material Service LifeMaterial service life is thenumber of years of service expected of the alternative understudy, which varies depending upon the pipe material, theenvironment, effluent, and application. Potential changes inen

41、vironmental conditions which may affect the material servicelife should be considered. Use job site tests, published reports,manufacturer product data, and local experience to establishservice life for each material. If material service life is less thanthe project design life (3.1.9), the analysis

42、shall include thefuture cost to sufficiently extend the service life throughrehabilitation or replacement, in order to at least equal theproject design life.6.4.3 Future CostsCost estimates should be made for allsignificant items that are estimated to be required to allow thedrainage system to satis

43、fy performance requirements over theproject design life. Common costs (1.1) may be excludedwithout affecting the relative ranking of the alternatives understudy. The cost estimates should be made in constant dollars(not including inflation) in the same time frame as the estimateof initial costs.6.4.

44、3.1 Operating CostOperating cost is an estimate of theannual cost for labor, power, and consumable materials andsupplies required to operate a drainage system. Except forpumped systems, most drainage systems do not have signifi-cant annual operating costs.6.4.3.2 Maintenance CostMaintenance cost inc

45、ludes costestimates and the frequency of any inspection, cleaning, andminor repair necessary to keep the system operating at capacityduring the project design life.6.4.3.3 Rehabilitation CostRehabilitation cost is the costof major repairs to extend the material service life to equal orexceed the pro

46、ject design life. If more than one rehabilitation isanticipated, the years in which the rehabilitation are plannedshould be noted.6.4.3.4 Replacement CostReplacement cost is the timingand cost estimate for complete replacement of any drainagesystem component. Take care to see if the service life of

47、thereplaced material or component will at least equal the remain-ing project design life. If not, rehabilitation or further replace-ment will be necessary.6.4.3.5 Terminal ValueTerminal value is the value of thedrainage system at the end of the project design life. Thepotential residual or salvage v

48、alue of a drainage system isdependent upon some of the factors considered in establishingproject design life. For example, if a storm sewer is beingevaluated and a long project design life (75 years) is used,consideration should be given to risk of future obsolescence. Ifthe likelihood of functional

49、 obsolescence is high, then theremay be no residual or salvage value. If, however, it is expectedthe material could be removed and either reused or sold, thenthe net cash value (in constant dollars) represents the terminalvalue. It is not recommended to use a residual value to reflectan economic value for any remaining material life in excess ofthe project design life. As an alternative, if the functionalrequirements of the system under design are for an indefiniteperiod, then consideration should be given to increasing theproject design life to an appropr
