Project id. 1 2 Cash outflow at time 0 (million Lira) 8 8 NPV (million Lira) 12 11 3 4 6 5 8 6 If 20 million Lira is available for investment at time 0, find the investment plan that maximizes NPV. All investments are required to be 0 or 1 (fractional investment values are not permitted). a. Formulate the mathematical model. (Write the decision variables, objective function and the constraints.) [10 pts.] b. Find the optimal solution by using Branch and Bound method (Draw the branch and bound tree clearly, write also lower bounds(LB)) (Left branches x=0, right branches x =1) [15 pts.].
