Estimates regarding each machine are provided below. Click here to view the factor table. Catculate the not precent value and profitability index of each machine. Assume a 9 \% discount rate. (dif the net present value is negabive. use elther a nejotive sign preceding the number eg -45 or parentheser es (45). Round answer for present value to 0 decimal ploces, es, 125 and profitability index to 2 decimal places, es, 10.50 . For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.) Compute the cash payback period and net present value of the proposed investment. (if the net present value is negotive, use either a negative slgn preceding the number es 45 or porentheses eg (45). Round answer for present value to 0 decimal places, es. 125. Round answer for Paybock period to 1 decimal ploce, es. 10.5.
