1.4 The table represents the cash flows received from the investments at the end year. Each investment requires an initial investment of $1000. Answer the questions related to the two investment opportunities in the table below. Year 1 2 3 4 5 Investment A 225 215 250 225 205 Investment B 220 225 250 250 210 There are two approaches to evaluate this investment. Show the necessary calculations. • Assume the interest rate ot 4.33%. Use present value analysis to determine which investment you should choose? Calculating the rate of returns of the investment, which investment would you choose and why?

Net cost of investment is 100,000. Profitability index is 1.3 while cost of capital is 10%. Useful life is 10 years. Use up to two decimal places for the PVF. What is the ARR? A• 42.35% B• 21.17% C• 22.34% D• 30%

P 9-1 Investment Scenarios (LO 9-3) Arkansas Best Freightways is considering a purchase of three different potential trucks. it is considering three different investment scenarios and their respective cash flows. Arkansas Best Freightways use a cost of capital of 9 percent to evaluate the investments. Year Year 0 (today) Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Buy new truck Increased profits Increased profits Increased profits Increased profits Net cash flows over life (not discounted) Investment 1 (85,000) 25,000 25,000 25,000 25,000 $ Investment 2 (105,000) 20,000 30,000 40,000 50,000 Required: 1. Calculate the net cash flows (not discounted) over the life of the three investments (years 0 to 4). (Negative amounts should be entered using a minus sign.) Answer is complete and correct. Investment 1 15,000 Investment 2 $ Investment 3 (125,000) 40,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 Investment 3 (25,000) 35,000 S Cost of Capital 9%

3. * The force of interest (t) at time t (measured in years) is a + bt² where a and b are constants. An amount of £200 at time t = 0 accumulates to £210 at t = 5 and £230 at t = 10. 1 (a) Show that a = log (1.05) - 30 log(1.15) = 0.008352, and b = 250 log(1.15) - 125 log(1.05) = 0.0001687. (b) Compute A(0, 7) and hence compute the discounted value at t = 0 of a payment of £750 due at t = 7. (c) Compute A(6, 7). What is the equivalent constant annual interest rate for the year from t = 6 to t = 7? (d) Calculate the constant force of interest that would give rise to the same accumulation from t = 0 to t = 10.
