In an unrelated analysis, you have the opportunity to choose between the following two mutually exclusive projects, Project T (which lasts for 2 years) and Project F (which lasts for 4 years): The projects provide a necessary service, so whichever one is selected is expected to be repeated into the foreseeable future. Both projects have a 10% cost of capital. (1) What is each projects initial NPV without replication? (2) What is each projects equivalent annual annuity? (3) Apply the replacement chain approach to determine the projects extended NPVs. Which project should be chosen? (4) Assume that the cost to replicate Project T in 2 years will increase to 105,000 due to inflation. How should the analysis be handled now, and which project should be chosen?
