A 75-hp (shaft output) motor that has an efficiency of 91.0 percent is worn out and is to be replaced by a highefficiency motor that has an efficiency of 95.4 percent. The motor operates 4368 hours a year at a load factor of 0.75. Taking the cost of electricity to be $0.12/kWh, determine the amount of energy and money saved as a result of installing the highefficiency motor instead of the standard motor. Also, determine the simple payback period if the purchase prices of the standard and high-efficiency motors are $5449 and $5520, respectively.
