NPV & IRR Refer to the scenario above. The project(s) you select may vary depending on the WACC and whether the projects are independent or mutually exclusive. Which statement is INCORRECT? If the projects are independent and the WACC is 11.0%, both projects A and B are acceptable. If the projects are independent, Project A would be acceptable if the WACC is 17%, but Project B would not. If a project's NPV is negative, the project cannot be accepted. If the projects are mutually exclusive and the WACC is 11.0%, only project B is acceptable. If the projects are mutually exclusive and the WACC is 6.0%, only project B is acceptable.

How do I determine which is the correct answer for this problem? A company estimates that an average-risk project has a WACC of 10 percent, a below-average-risk project has a WACC of 8 percent, and an above-average-risk project has a WACC of 12 percent. Which of the following independent projects should the company accept? a. Project A has average risk and an IRR = 9 percent. b. Project B has below-average risk and an IRR = 8.5 percent. c. Project C has above-average risk and an IRR = 11 percent. d. All of the projects above should be accepted. e. None of the projects above should be accepted. Please answer fast I give you upvote.

I think question 3 is not answered clearly.  If Project A is rejected due to negative NPV, then all positive NPVs projects should be accepted.  The answer is not clear. Please correct me if I am missing something.    Question 3) If the firm uses the discounted-payback rule, will it accept any negative NPV projects? Will it turn down any positive NPV projects? How do you know?    Your answer is:  No Due to Project A's negative NPV, it cannot cover the initial investment within its useful life. Will it turn down any positive NPV projects? It will reject projects with positive NPVs but not those with negative NPVs. If all potential cash flows are taken into account but the project still doesn't reach the designated cutoff point, the NPV can still be positive.

please solve this practice problem using the images below

1) What is the company's WACC? 2) Should the company take the projects? Assume that the projects have the same risk as an average project for your firm. 3) If one project is depended on the other in a way that the company can only take both projects, should it take it?

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IS CORRECT?

Engineering Economics

When faced with a set of independent projects, one should select (choose the best answer) all projects with a PI greater than one. all projects with an IRR greater than the hurdle rate all projects with a positive NPV or an IRR greater than the hurdle rate or a PI greater than one. all projects with a positive NPV or an IRR greater than the hurdle rate. all projects with an IRR greater than the hurdle rate or a PI greater than one. all projects with a positive NPV or a PI greater than the one. all projects with a positive NPV

Which of the following were listed as potential Problems or Issues associated with Using a Rate of Return Approach to justifying single or multiple Mutually Exclusive projects? Note: This is a Multiple Answer question. Please select all of the following options you think are correct? O The ROR calculations are typically more complex than the PW, AW, or FW methods and frequently require the use of trial and error techniques. O You cannot rely on the best Mutually Exclusive project to have the highest ROR. O An incremental approach is required to reliably determine the best project when comparing multiple Mutually Exclusive projects with the ROR approach. O This method assumes that any net positive cash flows are reinvested at the ROR rate. If the ROR rate is substantially larger than MARR, this might not be a realistic assumption. OFor any sequence of Net Cash Flows with more than one sign chance over the life of the project there may be more than one ROR value that satisfies the Rate…

29....When using the NPV method the decision making rationale includes the following (select all that apply): a.If projects are mutually exclusive, accept the project with the highest positive NPV. b.If projects are independent, accept if the project NPV<0. c.If projects are independent, accept if the project NPV>0 d.If the projects are mutually exclusive, accept the project with lowest NPV.
