EAM.10:5.2 - The sixteen supplied CityWater combinations

The common CityWater application supplies four two-option choices. Initial capital must not exceed €8 million, initial operating expenditure €0.60 million, annual operation €3 million and the available team/outage time twelve days. All amounts and eligibility results are constructed.

FFMK—refurbish A and B, modify C, continue D—uses €7 million capital, €0.50 million initially for operation, €1.85 million annually and eight days. Its present cost is €14.592284 million, the lowest among the declared eligible combinations. The common application provides all sixteen rows, so this conclusion is reproducible.

Adding D replacement while retaining the other choices gives FFMR: €10 million capital and lower present cost of €13.080344 million. It is infeasible at the €8 million allocation. Switching C to leased service permits D replacement within capital, but FFLR costs €15.350138 million overall.

If the funding board raises capital to €10 million, FFMR becomes preferred. If D continuation instead loses its engineering qualification, FFLR becomes preferred at the original limits. These changed outcomes follow from changed conditions, not from changing the ranking arbitrarily.
