Answer is $4,292
Investment A:
Cash Flows:
Year 0 = -$15,800
Year 1 = $8,800
Year 2 = $8,800
Year 3 = $8,800
Required Return = 15%
Present Value of Cash Inflows = $8,800 * PV of $1 (15%, 1) +
$8,800 * PV of $1 (15%, 2) + $8,800 * PV of $1 (15%, 3)
Present Value of Cash Inflows = $8,800 * 0.8696 + $8,800 * 0.7561 +
$8,800 * 0.6575
Present Value of Cash Inflows = $20,092
Net Present Value = Present Value of Cash Inflows - Initial
Investment
Net Present Value = $20,092 - $15,800
Net Present Value = $4,292
