Required: i.Determine the initial capital of Project A and Project B. If Project A and Project B are mutually exclusive, calculate the Net Present Value (NPV) of Project A and Project B given that the cost of capital is 5%.Based on the NPV method, explain with reason which project should be invested. ii. Axis Sdn. Bhd.’s current investment policy is to accept only investments that are recoverable within 3 years.Calculate the discounted payback period of Project A and Project B if the cost of capital is5%. Based on the calculated discounted payback period of Project A and Project B, advise the company on which new project to select if they are mutually exclusive.
