1) An investor bought 100 shares of omega common stock for $9000. He held the stock for 9 years. For the first 4 years he receives annual end-of year dividends of $800. For the next 4 years he received annual dividends of $400. He received no dividend for the 9th year. At the end of 9th year he sold his stock for $6000. What rate of return did he receive on his investment?
2) Consider two mutually exclusive alternatives:

If the MARR is 10%, which alternative should be selected? (Incremental analysis required).
3) The manager of a large food processing corporation is trying to decide between two alternative designs for an oil press.  The first alternative costs $250,000 and has a first-year operating cost of $45,000.  Operating costs are estimated to increase by $5000 per year for each year after the first.  The projected life time of this design is 8 years and there is no salvage value.
The second alternative costs $375,000 and has a first year operating cost of $15,000.  The operating costs are estimated to increase at a rate of $7000 per year.  The projected life time of design 2 is 10 years.  There is no salvage value. The benefits of each design are identical and the plant will be in operation for a long time.  Assuming an 8% interest rate which design should be chosen?
4) A  new  project  has  the  following  predicted  profits.    The  initial  investment  is $3,000,000.
Year        Revenue 
1             $200,000 
2             $400,000 
3             $600,000 
4             $800,000 
5             $1,200,000 
6             $1,200,000 
7            $1,400,000 
8            $1,600,000

b)  If your company's MARR is 12%, should you invest?
5) You  have  been  assigned  to  determine  the  RoR  for  a  large,  capital  intensive project.  The following cash flows have been predicted by the folks in marketing.
Year        Revenue 
0            $150 million 
1            $100 million 
2            $-450 million 
3           $-450 million 
4            $250 million 
5            $550 million 
 
When you plug these numbers into a solver, two RoRs are revealed, 45.3% and 21.0%.  Knowing that your company's einv = 15% and efin = 7.5%, what RoR do you report to your manager?
