An asterisk (*) will appear to the right, immediately above, or immediately below an incorrect entry. Notes:
The essay answer will not be graded. If number-entry box is blank (this would be an incorrect answer for N-boxes), error check returns two spaces, " "
Enter a zero in cells you would otherwise leave blank.
If number-entry or blank-entry box is incorrect, returns "*"
1. Payback Period If number-entry or blank-entry box is correct, returns single space, " "
Use data verification to set data entry to whole number >= 0, and use drop-downs for lables and names, so that students can't enter a space in a box and have it counted as correct.
Conditional formatting might be used but wasn't here, to hide some of the error check return symbols. If A1 = "~*", then font = red, if something else, then font = background color.

Based on net present value calculated in Part 4, the proposals should be ranked as follows:
Rank 1 Proposal D
Rank 2 Proposal B
Based on present value index calculated in Part 5, the proposals should be ranked as follows:
Rank 1 Proposal B
Rank 2 Proposal D
8.
The present value indexes indicate that although Proposal D has the larger net present value, it is not as attractive as Proposal B in terms of the amount of present value per dollar invested. Proposal D requires the larger investment. Thus, management should use investment resources for Proposal B before investing in Proposal D, absent any other qualitative considerations that may impact the decision.
