Investment Option "North" This potential investment is a little more risky and longer term, so it has a minimum rate of return of 15.30%. This investment would require an initial outlay of cash to purchase a piece equipment for $171,500, and at the end of the 8-year life of this investment is expected to have a salvage value of $77,175. For each year of this investment, net annual cash inflows are expected to be $32,500. 1. How much is the present value of the purchase of equipment? 2. How much is the present value of the salvage value? 3. How much is the present value of the annual cash inflows? 4. How much is the Net Present Value? 5. What is the value of the Present Value Index?

NPV profiles An NPV profile plots a project's NPV at various costs of capital. An example NPV profile is shown below: Identify the range of costs of capital that a firm would use to accept and reject this project, and answer the questions that follow.
