Year 4	(1,000)		25,000

Present Value of $1 at Compound Interest
Year	6%	10%	12%	15%	20%
1	0.943	0.909	0.893	0.870	0.833
2	0.890	0.826	0.797	0.756	0.694

10	0.558	0.386	0.322	0.247	0.162

a.Assuming that the desired rate of return is 20%, determine the net present value for the proposal. Use the table of the present value of $1 presented above. If required, round to the nearest dollar. If required, use the minus sign to indicate a negative net present value.

Present value of net cash flow	$
Amount to be invested	$
Net present value	$

b.Would management be likely to look with favor on the proposal?

The net present value indicates that the return on the proposal is than the minimum desired rate of return of 20%
