Solution

The Profitability Index (PI) is calculated by dividing the present value of future cash flows by the initial investment cost.

Here's the step-by-step calculation:

  1. Identify the present value of future cash flows. In this case, it's $350.
  2. Identify the initial investment cost. In this case, it's $325.
  3. Divide the present value of future cash flows by the initial investment cost to get the Profitability Index.

So, PI = Present value of future cash flows / Cost PI = 350/350 / 325 PI = 1.0769

So, the Profitability Index is 1.0769. This means that for every dollar invested, we expect to get back about $1.08.
