Answer #1

Alternative A.

Payback period = 11000/3500 = 3.142

. Net present worth = -11000*1.04^5 +3500(F/A,4%,5)

= $ 5,573.94

Alternative B.

Payback period = 23000/6600 = 3.48 years

Net future worth = - 23000*1.04^5 + 6600*(1.04^5 -0.04×5-1)/(0.04) = $ 7764.21

Alternative C

Payback period = 20000/5500 = 3.64

Net FW = -20000×1.04^5 + 5500(F/A,4%,5)

FW = $ 5,456.71

Option B has highest FW thus select B.

On the basis of Payback period alternative A is better.
