The net present value $($NPV$)$ method estimates how much a potential project will contribute to $,$ and it is the best selection criterion. The $--$ select $$ the NPV$,$ the more value the project adds; and added value means a $-$Select$-$ stock price. In equation form, the NPV is defined as:

$NPV=C{F}_0+\frac{C{F}_1}{(1+{)}^N}+\frac{C{F}_2}{(1+r{)}^2}+$dots$+\frac{C{F}_N}{(1+r{)}^N}={\displaystyle \underset{t=0}{\overset{N}{}}}\frac{C{F}_t}{(1+r{)}^t}$

NPV$.$ operating working capital requirements, and tax effects are all included in these cash flows. Both projects have $4-$year lives, and they have risk characteristics similar to the firm's average project. Bellinger's WACC is $9\%.$

What is Project A$\text{'}$s NPV$?$ Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round your intermediate calculations.

What is Project B$\text{'}$s NPV$?$ Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round your intermediate calculations.
