Ali is an intelligent business woman. She makes her investments after a very thoughtful process. In January 2018 , her manager has shown her some projects with the following details Option A Investment into a towel business that initially cost $200,000 and then will generate cash inflow of $24000 per year for the next 10 years Option B Investment into a detergent business that initially cost $190,000 and then will generate cash inflow of $20,000 for each of next 12 years. The rate of return associated with both the investments is 12%. Calculate Payback period, discounted payback period, profitability index, net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) of both the investments. Rank the projects based on each evaluation criteria. Comment on which investment Mrs. Ali should pick on the basis NPV and IRR.

John and Sally Claussen are considering the purchase of a hardware store from John Duggan. The Claussens anticipate that the store will generate cash flows of $81,000 per year for 20 years. At the end of 20 years, they intend to sell the store for an estimated $510,000. The Claussens will finance the investment with a variable rate mortgage. Interest rates will increase twice during the 20-year life of the mortgage. Accordingly, the Claussens’ desired rate of return on this investment varies as follows: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Frank Zanca is considering three different investments that his broker has offered to him. The different cash flows are as follows: End of Year A 1 $300 B C $400 2 $300 3 $300 4 $300 $300 $600 5 $300 6 $300 $300 $300 $600 7 8 Because Frank only has enough savings for one investment, his broker has proposed alternative C to be, according to his expertise, "the best in town."
