A B C D First Cost $-800 $-2,400 $-7,000 $-8,000 Annual Net Income, per Year $175 $375 $2000 $2000 Salvage Value $6 $4 $7 $7

Explanation / Answer

Answer

Working in thousand values
PW=-cost+A(P|A,i,n)+F*(P|F,i,n)
A=net annual benefit
F=salvage value
project A
PW=-800+175*(P|A,11,10)+6*(P|F,11,10)
=-800+175*5.889232+6*0.352184478
=232.728707

Project B
PW=-2400+375*5.889232+4*0.352184478
=-190.129262
Project C
PW=-7000+2000*5.889232+7*0.352184478
=4780.92929
Project D
PW=-8000+2000*5.889232+7*0.352184478
=3780.92929

The project C should be selected as it has the highest present worth.
