For the following projects, compute the net present value, internal rate of return, and the profitability index. Use the definition of PI I use in my presentations. Assume the required rate of return is 17.00% compounded annually.

Assume no capital constraint exists and that the projects are not mutually exclusive (i.e., you can invest in any one project, any two projects, any three projects, or all four projects). (a) What is the Net Present Value of project A? (b) What is the internal rate of return of project B? (c) What is the profitability index of project c?
