Explanation / Answer

a)

Present value of Cash Inflow = Positive figure of Initial Investment + NPV

b)

Since We are having Capital Budget of $ 1000000

Therefore Option are available for Investment

1)Project G, Project F & Project C, would lead to Investment of $ 1000000

Total NPV = 160000+50000+25000=235000

2)Project G & Project B

Total NPV = 160000+10000=170000

3)Project D & Project F

Total NPV = 90000+50000=140000

4)Project D & Project C

Total NPV = 90000+25000=115000

5) Project A,Project E ,Project F, Project C

Total NPV = 84000+70000+50000+25000 = 229000

6) Project A,Project E ,Project B

Total NPV = 84000+70000+10000 = 164000

Therefore Optimal group would be Project G, Project F & Project C which would provide highest NPV
