Price is the cost at which the investment is made today and single cash flow will be received at the year of receipt
So, NPV of the investment = - Price + Present Value of Single cash flow = - Price + Single Cash Flow / (1+r)n
where, r = rate of return = 10% = 0.10
n = year of receipt
Hence,
NPV of Investment A = -11200 + 18038/1.14 = $1120.20
NPV of Investment B = -336 + 1868/1.119 = $ -30.57
NPV of Investment C = -2128 + 5519/1.19 = $212.59
NPV of Investment D = -560 + 20946/1.139 = $ - 50.92
NPV is highest for Investment A, and hence A should be purchased
