Alright, time to put my finance skills to the test. A PI of 0.45 means the NPV is negative, so the answer is A. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

Haha, this is a trick question! The PI is just a ranking tool, not an indicator of NPV. The correct answer is D, Proposal B, because the PI for that project is greater than 1, meaning the NPV is positive.

Hmm, I think I'll go with D. Why? Because the higher the PI, the better the project. And 1.05 is definitely higher than 0.45, so Proposal B must be the winner!

I agree with you, Proposal B seems like the better choice with a PI of 1.05.

A profitability index of 0.45 means the NPV is less than zero, so the answer is clearly A. This is a straightforward capital budgeting question.

A) Proposal A, and the PI indicates that the net present value (NPV) for this project is less than zero
