A company wanted to invest in a project which requires an initial investment of ₱10,000 and discounting rate of 10% and will yield yearly cash flows as follows: Year 1, ₱2,000; Year 2, ₱7,000 and Year 3, ₱6,000. So, we will find out the Profitability Index by using the formula, PV of the cash flow = FV/ (1+i) ^n.   - Calculate PV of the cash flow for Year 1 of investment.   -Calculate PV of the cash flow for Year 2 of investment.   -Calculate PV of the cash flow for Year 3 of investment.   -How much is the total PV of future cash flow of the investment?   -Find the Profitability Index of the investment.
