- Net Present Value Method, Internal Rate of Return Method, and Analysis for a Service Company The management of Advanced Alternative Power Inc. is considering two capital investment projects. The estimated net cash flows from each project are as follows: Wind Biofuel Year Turbines Equipment 1 $250,000 $480,000 250,000 480,000 3 250,000 480,000 4 250,000 480,000 The wind turbines require an investment of $713,750, while the biofuel equipment requires an investment of $1,457,760.

- Consider a policy that generates benefits and costs this year (i.e., Year 0) and. next year (Year 1). Suppose the government knows that the net benefits this year are $100. Assume the social discount rate is 11%. If the undiscounted net benefits next year are more than $_, then the policy will have a positive net present value. Answer:arrow_forwardDetermine the internal rate of return for each project by (a) computing a present value factor for an annuity of $1 and (b) using the present value of an annuity of $1 in the table above.
