Explanation / Answer

project1:Requires an initial cash expenditure of $50,000, has a 9.5% cost of capital, and will return 6 years of income flow in the amount of $10,000 each year. npv=-c0+rt/(1+i)^t here c0= $50,000,i=9.5% ,t=6yrs r= $10,000 npv=-$50,000+$10,000/(1+.95)^1+$10,000/(1+.95)^2+$10,000/(1+.95)^3+ $10,000/(1+.95)^4+$10,000/(1+.95)^5+$10,000/(1+.95)^6 now we will observe out of all the projects which has the maximum positive value of npv that will b selected .. u have to do all the calculations for npv as done above
