When I = 10%
NPW of alternative 1 = -8000 + 4500 * (P/A, 10%,3)
= -8000 + 4500 * 2.486852
= 3190.83
NPW of alternative 2 = -8000 + 15000 * (P/F, 10%,3)
= -8000 + 15000 * 0.751315
= 3269.72
As NPW of alternative 2 is more it should be selected
When I = 18%
NPW of alternative 1 = -8000 + 4500 * (P/A, 18%,3)
= -8000 + 4500 * 2.174273
= 1784.22
NPW of alternative 2 = -8000 + 15000 * (P/F, 18%,3)
= -8000 + 15000 * 0.608631
= 1129.46
As NPW of alternative 1 is more it should be selected
