Currently, some of their productions such as bags and shoes have been outsourced due to lack of available resources.

They have called new business proposals and have finally, chosen two projects using managers’ discretion to make final decision. Initial investment required for project A (bags) is £180,000 and for project B (shoes) is £170,000. The discount rate required is at 14%. The net cash flows for two projects can be summarized as below:
