To do so, it will need to invest in new equipment. Williams Corp. has gathered the following information about each proposal: Proposal A's equipment will cost $8,740,000 and is expected to result in annual net cash inflows of $1,505,000 over nine years, with zero residual value at the end of nine years. Proposal B's equipment will cost $7,880,000 and is expected to generate net cash inflows of $985,000 per year for nine years. Estimated residual value for Plan B is $1,075,000. Williams Corp. uses straight-line depreciation and requires an annual rate of return of 6%.
