Exercise 24-14 Computing and interpreting net present value and internal rate of return LO P3, P4 Phoenix Company can invest in each of three cheese-making projects: C1, C2, and C3. Each project requires an initial investment of $300,000 and would yield the following annual cash flows. (PV of $1. FV of $1. PVA of S1, and FVA of S1 (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Totals C1 $ 36,000 132,000 192,000 $360,000 C2 $120,000 120,000 120,000 $360,000 C3 $204,000 84,000 72,000 $360,000 1. Assume that the company requires a 9% return from its investments. Using net present value, determine which projects, if any. should be acquired. 2.
