Dwight Donovan, the president of Munoz Enterprises, is considering two investment opportunities. Because of limited resources, he will be able to invest in only one of them. Project A is to purchase a machine that will enable factory automation; the machine is expected to have a useful life of four years and no salvage value. Project B supports a training program that will improve the skills of employees operating the current equipment. Initial cash expenditures for Project A are $117,000 and for Project B are $49,000. The annual expected cash inflows are $45,196 for Project A and $15,458 for Project B. Both investments are expected to provide cash flow benefits for the next four years. Munoz Enterprises desired rate of return is 6 percent. (PV of $1 and PVA of $1)
