Let's set up a new problem set for you to practice your financial analysis skills. This time, we'll create scenarios with two different projects, each having unique cash flow structures, investment requirements, and operational timeframes. You can apply various financial metrics to evaluate these projects. Assuming rate of return is $10\%.$

Project A:

Initial Investment: $$50,000($CF$0)$

Yearly Cash Flows for $6$ Years: $$12,000,$ $$15,000,$ $$18,000,$ $$18,000,$ $$15,000,$ $$12,000$

Project B:

Initial Investment: $$80,000($CF$0)$

Yearly Cash Flows for $5$ Years: $$22,000,$ $$25,000,$ $$30,000,$ $$30,000,$ $$25,000$

$1.$ What is the NPV $($$$)$ for project A$?$ ex$)123\mathrm{.}45$
