Ans: PW = $15818.73
Yes this is a good investment.
Explanation:
Initial investment ( P ) = $64,532
Net annual revenue ( A ) = $24,162
Number of interest period ( n ) = 6
Interest rate ( i ) = 20%
Present Worth = - P + A ( P / A , i ,n )
= - $64532 + $24162 ( P / A , 20% , 6 )
= -$64532 + $24162 ( 3.3255 )
= - $64532 + $80350.73
= $15818.73
This is a good investment due to the positive present worth value .
