Question text
You are considering a project with the following cash flows:
t=0 -$99,990
t=1 $65,234
t=2 $63,990
Your company has a policy of using the profitability index (PI) to assess similar projects. Based on the policy, only projects returning at least $1.0575 in today's dollars for every $1 invested may be accepted. If the required rate of return of 14.925% is applied to this project, what would be your recommendation? Your company is in the 34% tax bracket, and the project's asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis. What would be your decision? Why?
