per year for the next five years. Project 2 is updating the store's wine section. The estimated annual after-tax cash flow for this project is
$540,000
for the next six years. If the appropriate discount rate for the deli expansion is
9.5%
and the appropriate discount rate for the wine section is
9.1%,
use the NPV to determine which project Singing Fish should choose for the store. Adjust the NPV for unequal lives with the equivalent annual If the appropriate discount rate for the deli expansion is
9.5%,
