Net Present Value Method, Internal Rate of Return Method, and Analysis for a Service Company The management of Advanced Alternative Power Inc. is considering two capital investment projects. The estimated net cash flows from each project are as follows: Wind Biofuel Year Turbines Equipment 1 $250,000 $480,000 250,000 480,000 3 250,000 480,000 4 250,000 480,000 The wind turbines require an investment of $713,750, while the biofuel equipment requires an investment of $1,457,760.

Question/ Requirement: Determine each project's payback period.How many years? Info Given: Hearne Company has a number of potential capital investments. Because these projects vary in nature, initial investment, and time horizon, management is finding it difficult to compare them. Assume straight line depreciation method is used. (Future Value of $1, Present Value of $1, Future Value Annuity of $1, Present Value Annuity of $1.) Project 2: Purchase Patent for New ProductThe patent would cost $3,400,000, which would be fully amortized over five years. Production of this product would generate $425,000 additional annual net income for Hearne.Project 3: Purchase a New Fleet of Delivery TrucksHearne could purchase 25 new delivery trucks at a cost of $115,000 each. The fleet would have a useful life of 10 years, and each truck would have a salvage value of $5,000. Purchasing the fleet would allow Hearne to expand its customer territory resulting in $200,000 of additional net income per year.
