eBook Print Rem 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: Year Wind Turbines Biofuel Equipment $350,000 $670,000 2 350,000 670,000 3 4 350,000 350,000 670,000 670,000 The wind turbines require an investment of $999,250, while the biofuel equipment requires an investment of $1,734,630. No residual value is expected from either project.
