    Answer: Profitability index (PI statistic) = 1.43

    Explanation:

    Profitability index otherwise known as PI statistic measures the ratios of cash flows of a project to the initial investment. It is used to measure whether a project is profitable or not.

    Profitability index = (present value of future cash flows) / investments

    PV = 370 / (1.07) ^1 + 500 / (1.07) ^2 + 670 / (1.07) + 320 / (1.07) ^4 + 120 / (1.07) ^5

    PV of cash flows = 1569.1181436

    Profitability index (PI statistic) = 1569.1181436/1100 = 1.426471039

    Profitability index (PI statistic) = 1.43
