1. What is the present value payback period for this project?

Project E has the following cash flows: (remember the year zero number is negative)

Year 0 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4

Cash flows -$1,000,000 $300,000 $400,000 $500,000 $500,000

1. Using a 9% cost of capital, what is the net present value of this project? Assume that Project E is mutually exclusive to Project B above. Using net present value to make the decision -- should this project be accepted over Project B?

1. Using a 9% cost of capital, what is the profitability index for this project? Assume that Project E is mutually exclusive to Project B above. Using the profitability decision model to make the decision -- should this project be accepted over Project B?

1. Using a 9% cost of capital, what is the internal rate of return for this project? Assume that Project E is mutually exclusive to Project B above. Using the internal rate of return decision model to make the decision -- should this project be accepted over Project B?

1. Using a 9% cost of capital, what is the payback period for this project? Assume that Project E is mutually exclusive to Project B above. Using the payback decision model to make the decision -- should this project be accepted over Project B?
