Net Present Value Method, Internal Rate of Return Method, and Analysis 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 1 2 3 4 Year 1 Present Value of an Annuity of $1 at Compound Interest 12% 20% 2 3 4 5 6 7 80 $350,000 350,000 350,000 350,000 9 6% 0.943 1.833 2.673 3.465 4.212 4.917 5.582 6.210 Biofuel Equipment 6.802 10% 0.909 1.736 2.487 3.170 3.791 4.355 4.868 5.335 $700,000 700,000 700,000 700,000 5.759 0.893 1.690 2.402 3.037 3.605 4.111 4.564 4.968 5.328 15% 0.870 1.626 2.283 2.855 3.352 3.784 4.160 4.487 4.772 0.833 1.528 2.106 2.589 2.991 3.326 3.605 3.837 4.031 4 ?

Net Present Value Method, Internal Rate of Return Method, and Analysis The management of Advanced Alternative Power Inc, is considering two capital investment projects. The estimated net cash flows from each project are as follows: Present Value of an Annuity of $1 at Compound Interest 1a. Compute the net present value for each project. Use a rate of 10% and the present value of an annulty of $1 in the table above. If required, use the minus sign to indicate a negative net present value. If required, round to the nearest whole dollar. 1b. Compute a present value indox for each project. If required, round your answers to two decimal places. 2. Determine the internal rate of return for each project by (a) computing a present value factor for an annuity of $1 and (b) using the present value of an annuity of $1 in the table above. If required, round your present value factor answers to three decimal places and internal rate of return to the nearest whole percent. 3. The net present value, present value index; and internal rate of return all indicate that the opportunity compared to the although both investments meet the minimum return criterion of 10%
