Net present value=PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow
=90000*PVF(10% , n year)+8000*PVF(10%, n year)+49000*PVF(10%, n year) - 98000
=90000*909+8000*.826+49000*.751-98000
=$27217

=1+(8000/8000)
= 2 years
Accounting rate of return = Averate Income / Average Investment
Average Income = (90000+8000+49000)/3 = 49000
ARR = 49000/98000
= 50%
Proposal Y
Net Present value = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow
=49000*.909+49000*.826+49000*.751 - 98000
=$23814
Payback Period = Initial Investment / Cash inflow for period
98000 / 49000 = 2 years
Accounting rate of return = Average Income / Average Investment
Average Income= (49000+49000+49000)/3 = 49000
ARR = 49000 / 98000
= 50%
Proposal Z
Net present value = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow
=98000*.909 = 98000
= - 8918
Payback period = Initial Investment / Cash inflow per period
98000/98000 = 1 year
Accounting rate of return = Average Income / Average Investment
= 98000/98000 = 100%
Proposal X should be accepted
