Answer:
1.075
Explanation:
The computation of the profitability index is shown below:
= Net Present value ÷ Required investment
where,
Net Present value
= Annual cash inflows × PVIFA for 8 years at 12%
= $92,000 × 4.9676
= $457,019.2 0
Refer to the PVIFA table
And, the required investment is $425,000
So, the profitability index is
= $457,019.2 0 ÷ $425,000
= 1.075
