Round your “PI” answers to 3 decimal places (e.g., 32.161) and other answers to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

Project A: Nagano NP-30.
Professional clubs that will take an initial investment of $640,000 at time 0.
Next five years (Years 1–5) of sales will generate a consistent cash flow of $275,000 per year.
Introduction of new product at Year 6 will terminate further cash flows from this project.
Project B: Nagano NX-20.
High-end amateur clubs that will take an initial investment of $650,000 at Time 0.
Cash flow at Year 1 is $190,000. In each subsequent year cash flow will grow at 10 percent per year.
Introduction of new product at Year 6 will terminate further cash flows from this project.
