Project X:
Net Annual benefit = 2,500,000 - 750,000 = 1,750,000
PW = -10,500,000 + 1,750,000(P/A, 15%, 30) + 2,000,000(P/F, 15%, 30)
= -10,500,000 + 1,750,000(6.566) + 2,000,000(0.0151)
= -10,500,000 + 9,740,500 + 30,200
= -$729,300
Project Y:
Net annual benefit = 2,265,000 - 625,000 = 1,640,000
PW = -13,000,000 + 1,640,000(6.566) + 1,750,000(0.0151)
= -13,000,000 + 9,128,240 + 26,425
= -$3,845,335
Project Z:
Net annual benefit = 2,150,000 - 650,000 = 1,500,000
PW = -9,500,000 + 1,500,000(5.566) + 1,250,000(0.0151)
= -9,500,000 + 8,349,000 + 18,875
= -$1,132,125
Since PW of all the projects are negative, therefore, no projects should be selected.
