Project S has a cost of $10,000 and is expected to produce benefits (cash flows) of $3,000 per year for 5 years. Project L costs $25,000 and is expected to produce cash flows of $7,400 per year for 5 years. Calculate the two projects’ NPVs, IRRs, MIRRs, and PIs, assuming a cost of capital of 12%. Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive, using each ranking method? Which should actually be selected?

You must analyze two projects, X and Y. Each project costs$10,000, and the firm’s WACC is 12%. The expected cash flows are as follows:a. Calculate each project’s NPV, IRR, MIRR, payback, and discounted payback.b. Which project(s) should be accepted if they are independent?c. Which project(s) should be accepted if they are mutually exclusive?d. How might a change in the WACC produce a conflict between the NPV and IRR rankingsof the two projects? Would there be a conflict if WACC were 5%? (Hint: Plot theNPV profiles. The crossover rate is 6.21875%.)e. Why does the conflict exist?

Connor Corporation is considering two projects (see below). For your analysis, assume these projects are mutually exclusive with a required rate of return of 12%. Project 1 Project 2 Initial investment $(510,000) $(685,000) Cash inflow Year 1 $485,000 $610,000 Compute the following for each project: NPV (net present value) PI (profitability index) IRR (internal rate of return) Based on your analysis, answer the following questions : Which is the best choice? Why? Which project should be selected and why? If the projects had the same IRR amounts but different NPV totals, then how would you know which project to select? Explain. What would happen if both projects had negative NPV totals? Which project would you choose? What do negative NPVs indicate? Explain. Should we also use the payback method to assist us in project selection? Why or why not? Explain.
