The required rate of return on investment is 14% semi-annually. Compute the net present value of each alternative and determine which investment should be accepted or rejected according to the net present value criterion. The net present value of Alternative 1 is $. (Round the final answer to the nearest dollar as needed. Round all intermediate values to six decimal places as needed.)
