Tamarisk Company is considering two different, mutually exclusive capital expenditure proposals. Project A will cost $537,000, has an expected useful life of 15 years and a salvage value of zero, and is expected to increase net annual cash flows by $69,000. Project B will cost $351,000, has an expected useful life of 15 years and a salvage value of zero, and is expected to increase net annual cash flows by $47,000. A discount rate of 8% is appropriate for both projects. Calculate the net present value and profitability index of each project. (If the net present value is negative, use either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). Round present value answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125 and profitability index answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.52. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided, e.g. 1.25124.) Net present value Profitability index $ Project A $ Project B

Markoff Products is considering two competing projects, but only one will be selected. Project A requires an initial investment of $42,000 and is expected to generate future cash flows of $6,000 for each of the next 50 years. Project B requires an initial investment of $210,000 and will generate $30,000 for each of the next 10 years. If Markoff requires a payback of 8 years or less, which project should it select based on payback periods?
Roberts Company is considering an investment in equipment that is capable of producing more efficiently than the current technology. The outlay required is 2,293,200.
