Wilkinson, V K

One of the most uncertain elements in budgeting is estimating capital recovery charges for facilities and equipment required to produce items that have heretofore only been prototyped. Further compounding the problem is the desire to examine those capital recovery charges over plant lives or planting horizons as long as 30 to 50 years. This paper proposes a method to determine the appropriate production unit charge for the investment in initial and replacement facilities and equipment.
