Problem 2. Consider the following series of cash flows:
	Cumulative
Month	Amount	0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18	19	20
CF (1,000s of $)	$400.00	-700	1200	600	300	-1000	-1200	-400	-300	-1000	1200	400	300	1000	-1200	-400	-300	1000	1200	400	300	-1000
	What is the NPV if the MARR yields 15%? Compute your solution by two (2) methods as follows:
	Example.	Compute the PV month-by-month and sum those monthly results to find the NPV. I've done this for you as an example.
	A.	Read through the example provided in the "Example" tab. Explicitly state that you reviewed the example and understand what is happening.
	B.	Then, separately, use Excel's NPV function.
	C.	Now recompute the NPV at a MARR of 65%. I know that is awfully high, but see what happens. Comment about the difference.
	D.	Compute the FV at the end of month 20 at a MARR of 15%. Note I do not know of an Excel function that performs this calculation.
Example
n =	20	months
iA =	15%	% per year = MARRAnnual This is an effective annual interest rate.
iM =	1.171%	% per month = MARRMonthly This is an effective monthly interest rate.
