You have agreed to make investment in your friends agricultural farm. This would require an amount of $20,000 as initial investment on your part. Your friend promises you revenue (before expenses) of $3600 per year the first year and thereafter the revenue increases by $200 per year. Your share of the estimated annual expenses is $1000. You are planning to invest for six years. Your friend has made the commitment to buyout your share of the business at that time for $24000. You have decided to set a personal MARR of 15% per year. Judge the profitability of the investment project by using Future Worth (FW) method.
