Quantitative Problem: Bellinger Industries is considering two projects for inclusion in its capital budget, and you have been asked to do the analysis. Both projects' after-tax cash flows are shown on the time line below. Depreciation , salvage values, net operating working capital requirements, and tax effects are all included in these cash flows. Both projects have 4-year lives, and they have risk characteristics similar to the firm's average project. Bellinger's WACC is 10%.

Could there be a conflict with project acceptance between the
-Select-YesNoCorrect 3 of Item 3
The reason is -Select-the NPV and IRR approaches use the same reinvestment rate assumption so both approaches reach the same project acceptance when mutually projects are considered.the NPV and IRR approaches use different reinvestment rate assumptions so there can be a conflict in project acceptance when mutually exclusive projects are considered.Correct 4 of Item 3
Reinvestment at the -Select-IRRWACCCorrect 5 of Item 3 is the superior assumption, so when mutually exclusive projects are evaluated the -Select-NPVIRRCorrect 6 of Item 3 approach should be used for the capital budgeting decision.

Consider this case: Blue Llama Mining Company is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project (project Delta) that will require an initial investment of $1,400,000. Blue Llama Mining Company has been basing capital budgeting decisions on a project’s NPV; however, its new CFO wants to start using the IRR method for capital budgeting decisions. The CFO says that the IRR is a better method because percentages and returns are easier to understand and to compare to required returns. Blue Llama Mining Company’s WACC is 7%, and project Delta has the same risk as the firm’s average project. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $300,000 Year 2 $425,000 Year 3 $400,000 Year 4 $425,000 Q1.
