Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The benefit cost ratio is 1.564

Explanation:

The benefit-cost ratio is the ratio of the present value of benefits to the present value of costs. It is thus calculated as follows.

Benefit-cost ratio = Present value of benefits / Present value of costs

Present value of costs = $20,000 + $2,500 (P/A, 10%, 10 years)

                                     = $20,000 + $15,361

                                     = $35,361

Present value of benefits = $9,000 (P/A, 10%, 10 years)

                                          = $9,000 x 6.145

                                          = $55,305

Benefit-cost ratio = $55,305 / $35,361

                             = 1.564
