Straight-linedepreciation will be used, and no residual value is expected. Thecommittee has selected a rate of 12% for purposes of the netpresent value analysis.

Compute the average rate ofreturn for each investment. If required, round your answer to onedecimal place. Average Rate of Return Warehouse % TrackingTechnology % 1b. Compute the net present value for each investment.Use the present value of $1 table above. If required, use the minussign to indicate a negative net present value. Warehouse TrackingTechnology Present value of net cash flow total $ $ Less amount tobe invested $ $ Net present value $ $ 2. The warehouse has a netpresent value as tracking technology cash flows occur in time.Thus, if only one of the two projects can be accepted, the would bethe more attractive.
