Most Company has an opportunity to invest in one of two new projects. Project Y requires a $340,000 investment for new machinery with a six-year life and no salvage value. Project Z requires a $340,000 investment for new machinery with a five-year life and no salvage value. The two projects yield the following predicted annual results. The company uses straight-line depreciation, and cash flows occur evenly throughout each year. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

	Project Y				Project Z
Sales		$	375,000			$	300,000
Expenses
Direct materials			52,500				37,500
Direct labor			75,000				45,000

Income taxes (26%)			22,230				14,430
Net income		$	63,270			$	41,070

4. Determine each projects net present value using 8% as the discount rate. Assume that cash flows occur at each year-end. (Round your intermediate calculations.)
