Answer 1

Project A's PW is max. (-)$5,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since such projects are separate and mutually exclusive, the project with the highest present value will be selected, since PW represents the total of all discounted cash inflows and outflows.

Because project A's PW is max. (-)$5,000.

Note that only 1 project will be chosen as these are mutually exclusive, meaning that the other two can not be chosen if either is selected.
