7. The Square Box is considering two projects, both of which have an initial cost of $35,000 and total cash inflows of $50,000. The cash inflows of project A are $5,000, $10,000, $15,000, and $20,000 over the next four years, respectively. The cash inflows for project B are $20,000, $15,000, $10,000, and $5,000 over the next four years, respectively. Which one of the following statements is correct if The Square Box requires a 13 percent rate of return and has a required discounted payback period of 3.5 years? A. Both projects should be accepted. B. Both projects should be rejected. C. Project A should be accepted and project B should be rejected. D. Project A should be rejected and project B should be accepted. E. You should be indifferent to accepting either or both projects.

A project has an initial cost of $7,000. The cash inflows are $1,000, $2,600, $3,000, and $4,000 over the next four years, respectively. What is the payback period? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Vaughn Inc. is contemplating a capital investment of $84000. The cash flows over the project's four years are: Expected Annual Expected Annual Year Cash Inflows Cash Outflows 1 $31000 $12000 2 44000 19000 3 63000 24000 49000 29000 The cash payback period is

Two projects, Alpha and Beta, are being considered using the payback method. Each has an initial cost of $100,000. The annual cash flows for each project are listed below. a) What is the pay back period in years for Alpha? (round to two decimal places) b) What is the pay back period in years for Beta? (round to two decimal places) Year Project Alpha Project Beta 1 25,000 15,000 2 25,000 25,000 3 25,000 45,000 4 25,000 30,000 5 25,000 20,000 25,000 15,000

The cost of a project is $50,000 and it generates cash inflows of $20,000, over four years. Calculate IRR using excel.

The Square Box is considering two independent projects, both of which have an initial cost of $18,000. The cash inflows of Project A are $3,000, $7,000, and $10,000 over the next three years, respectively. The cash inflows for Project B are $3,000, $7,000, and $15,000 over the next three years, respectively. The required return is 12 percent and the required discounted payback period is 3 years. Based on discounted payback, which project(s), if either, should be accepted? Group of answer choices Project A should be rejected and Project B should be accepted. Both projects should be accepted. Project A should be accepted and Project B should be rejected. Both projects should be rejected. You should be indifferent to accepting either or both projects.

A project has estimated to cost $64,025. and provide annual net cash flows of $15,000 for 6 years. Determine the internal rate of return for this project.

The Butler-Perkins Company (BPC) must decide between two mutually exclusive projects. Each costs $7,000 and has an expected life of 3 years. Annual project cash flows begin 1 year after the initial investment and are subject to the following probability distributions: Project A Project B Probability Cash Flows Probability Cash Flows 0.2 $6,250 0.2 $0 0.6 $7,000 0.6 $7,000 0.2 $7,750 0.2 $19,000 BPC has decided to evaluate the riskier project at 12% and the less-risky project at 10%. a. What is each project's expected annual cash flow? Round your answers to two decimal places. Project A: $ Project B: $ Project B's standard deviation (σB) is $6,131.88 and its coefficient of variation (CVB) is 0.77. What are the values of (σA) and (CVA)? Round your answers to two decimal places. σA = $ CVA = b. Based on the risk-adjusted NPVs, which project should BPC choose? c. If you knew that Project B's cash flows were negatively correlated with the firm's other cash flow, but Project A's cash flows…

As the project manager, you have been asked by AstraZeneca to assess the viability of two (2) sub-projects based on their net present value (NPV). Project 1 has an initial investment of $50,000 and a net cash inflow of $27,000 for a period of2 years.Project 2 has an initial investment of $150,000 and a net cash inflow of $59,000 in year 1and $120,000 in year 2.The discount rate to be used is 5%  base on the information which project should be selected and why?

You need to prepare for three large, upcoming project expenditures which will begin 3 years from now. The first required cash flow will be $56,000, the next year will require $94,000, and then $132,000. If you begin setting aside funds from your current budget next month, how much do you need to save each month in order to have enough to cover all three cash flows the day the first cash flow comes due? Assume you can invest these funds at 8.4 percent APR, compounded monthly. Please demonstrate how to calculate using a financial calculator, when possible.
