Answer:
Option B is the correct answer,1.05
Explanation:
Present value index can be computed using the below formula:
present value index=present value of cash inflows/initial amount invested
present value of cash inflows=annual net cash flow*present value factor of annuity
annual net cash flow=$93,750
present value factor of annuity=4.212
present value of cash inflows=$93,750*4.212=$394,875.00
initial amount invested is $375,000
present value index=$394,875.00/$375,000
=1.053
The present value index of this project is approximately 1.05,which is the option B in the multiple choices
