1. Consider two mutually exclusive investment projects: A 1 and A2. Each project has the same service life, and the present worth of each component value (B, I, and C) is computed at 10% as follows: Project Al: B=$8000, I-$3500, C-$2000 and Project A2: B-$18000, I-$11,000, C-$4000 Which project would be the best alternative based on PI index?

13.12 You work for Bellevue Window Products. While performing an analysis for a new window prod- uct, you found a report from last year that pro- vided the following information regarding the manufacture of a similar product: annual produc- tion rate T 40,000 units; selling price = $70 per unit; fixed production cost = $240,000 per year; variable production cost = $1,700,000 per year; variable selling expenses = $96,000 per year. As a first-cut, you decide to use this information to estimate (a) the breakeven production rate per year, (b) the company's profit last year, and (c) the annual production rate that would generate a profit of $1,000,000 per year. What are your estimates?
I want you to provide me the Cash Flow diagram of the problem. Only cash flow diagram, the solution is already there. Thanks in advance! The annual estimated cash flow is $140,000. The salvage value will be 12% of the initial price after 5 years. The discount rate (r) is 18% Let us assume the initial price of the doughnut machine be X.

Which of the following is true about net present value? O The higher the NPV, the better the return on the investment. O A project is acceptable if NPV > 0 O All of the given answer choices. O NPV is one of the easiest decision methods to calculate.
The ore of a gold mine in the Mountain Province contains, on the average, 0.5 gram of gold per ton. One method of processing costs Php 1,650 per ton and recovers 93% of the gold, while another method costs only Php 1,500 per ton and recovers 81% of the gold. If gold can be sold at Php 8,500 per gram, which method is better and by how much? Hint: Consider the income and cost per ton of ore. Solve for the net receipt of each method. Note: Write only A or B for the better method (first blank). Input numerical answers only on the savings (second blank), do not type the units, space or comma. Answers: Better method Savings: Php
3. In a waterflooded mature oil field, a large scale polymer-flooding project is evaluated with a small-scale pilot-test being considered to make a decision. Without the pilot test, the existing waterflooding will continue with an estimated NPV of $36 MM USD. Historically, polymer-flooding pilot tests resulted with promising results in 65% of the cases, and results are representative for large-scale flooding in 70% of the cases (can be considered as right data are collected). • In the case of a promising pilot-test, large scale project will have an NPV of $80 MM, but if the pilot test is not representative (is wrong), this will result in a loss of $40 MM USD. • In the case of a not-promising pilot-test, existing waterflood will continue as it is, with an NPV of $36 MM USD. Calculate the value-of-information of the pilot test, by considering Lohrenz's Method.
