A clinic is considering the possibility of two new purchases: new MRI equipment and new biopsy equipment. Each project requires an investment of $425,000. The expected life for each is five years with no expected salvage value. The net cash inflows associated with the two independent projects are as follows:
1. Compute the payback period for each project.
2. Compute the accounting rate of return for each project.
A clinic is considering the possibility of two new purchases: new MRI equipment and new biopsy equipment. Each project requires an investment of $430,000.

The present value tables provided in Exhibit 19B.1 and Exhibit 19B.2 must be used to solve the following problems.
Required:
Compute the net present value of each project, assuming a required rate of 10 percent. If the NPV is negative, enter your answer as a negative value.
A clinic is considering the possibility of two new purchases: new MRI equipment and new biopsy equipment. Each project requires an investment of $425,000. The expected life for each is five years with no expected salvage value. The net cash inflows associated with the two independent projects are as follows:
Year MRI Equipment Biopsy Equipment1 $200,000 $50,0002 100,000 50,0003 150,000 100,0004 100,000 200,0005 50,000 237,500
1. Compute the payback period for each project. Assume that the manager of the clinic accepts only projects with a payback period of three years or less. Offer some reasons why this may be a rational strategy even though the NPV computed in Exercise 19-11 may indicate otherwise.
2. Compute the accounting rate of return for each project.
