Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A construction site has both a bulldozer and an excavator. The bulldozer has a high wear item cost of $1200 and lasts for 400 hours before needing replacement. The excavator has a high wear item cost of $1500 with a lifespan of 600 hours. Calculate the hourly cost for high wear items for both machines.

💡 Hint: Remember to divide the total cost by the expected lifespan for hourly rates.

Question 2

If a twin engine scraper requires 0.125 liters per horsepower per hour for a 450 HP engine, what is the total hourly fuel consumption? If fuel costs 60 rupees per liter, calculate the total hourly fuel cost.

💡 Hint: Break down the calculation to manage total consumption before applying unit price.
