Year 1 2 3 4
$ 107,500 $ 160,155 $ 165,906 $ 138,100

  1. If the firms cost of capital is 10 percent, should the investment be made? Use Appendix B to answer the question. Use a minus sign to enter a negative value, if any. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

    NPV: $

  2. An alternative use for the $380,000 is a four-year U.S. Treasury bond that pays $26,600 annually and repays the $380,000 at maturity. Management believes that the cash inflows from the risky investment are equivalent to only 70 percent of the certain investment, which pays 7 percent. Should the investment be made? Use Appendix B to answer the question. Do not round other intermediate calculations. Use a minus sign to enter a negative value, if any. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
