Al-Alis firm is considering two projects and the cash flows associated with them are shown in the following table. The firm has set its cost of capital at 11 %

Year	Project A	Project B
0	- SR 200	- SR 200
1	80	100
2	80	100
3	80	100
4	80

1- What is the payback period (PBP) for each project?

	Project A	Project B
Payback period (PBP)	2.5	2

2- Calculate the NPV for each project?

	Project A	Project B
NPV

3- What is the IRR for each project ? ( to help you in calculating the IRR for project A is located between 21% & 22 % and for project B is between 23% & 24).

	Project A	Project B
IRR

4- Compute the Profitability Index (PI) for each project?

	Project A	Project B
