Answer:

Project A should be chosen because its NPV is positive ($338.74), while project B's NPV is negative

Explanation:

Year      Cash Flow (A)      Cash Flow (B)

0                -$32,000             -$26,000

1                     11,500                   3,500

2                   15,900                   5,800

3                   13,200                 24,900

NPV project A = -$32,000 + $11,500/1.12 + $15,900/1.12² + $13,200/1.12³ = $338.74

NPV project B = -$26,000 + $3,500/1.12 + $5,800/1.12² + $24,900/1.12³ = -$527.95
