[35 pts.] Four projects are available for investment. The projects require the cash flows and yield the net present values (NPV)(in millions) shown in the following table.
\table[[\table[[Project],[id.]],\table[[Cash outflow at time],[O(million Lira)]],\table[[NPV],[(million Lira)]]],[1,4,40],[2,7,42],[3,5,25],[4,3,12]]
If 10 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).
