Assignment
1. A company is thinking about investing $1,000 in a new factory. According to budget analysis, the factory will generate the following cash flows:
Year1 $200
Year2 $600
Year3 $800
Year4 $200
The company requires that its projects return 12%(perhaps because it pays 8% on its bonds,and requires a profit of 4%). Should the company invest in the new factory?
