Pound Industries is attempting to select the best of three mutually exclusive projects. The initial investment and after-tax cash inflows associated with these projects are shown in the following table Cash flows                              Project A           Project B                Project C Initial investment (CF0)           $60,000            $100,000                $110,000 Cash inflows (CFt), t = 1 to 5   $20,000            $ 31,500                 $ 32,500 e. Calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) for each project. f. Summarize the preferences dictated by each measure, and indicate which project you would recommend. Explain why.

Carol, Inc. is considering three different independent investment opportunities. The present value of future cash flows, initial investment, and net present value for each of the projects are as follows:       Project A         Project B         Project C     Present value of future cash flows    $    651,200         $    476,700         $    585,200     Initial investment         280,000              235,000              270,000     Net present value    $    371,200         $    241,700         $    315,200      In what order should Carol prioritize investment in the projects? Multiple Choice A, B, C C, A, B C, B, A A, C, B

Consider two mutually exclusive projects, A and B, whose costs and cash flows areshown in the following table:Year           Project A            Project B1              $(14,000)                $(22,840)2                  8,000                     8,0003                  6,000                     8,0004                   2,000                   8,0005                  3,000                     8,000Calculate the cross over rate. Please use equations and not excel

The net cash flow per year for the investment projects A and B, is presented in the table below. Expected Net Cash Flow ($) Project 0 1 2 3 4 A -10,000 6500 3000 3000 1000 B -10,000 3500 3500 3500 3500 Calculate the NPV, IRR, PI, and PVR for the cash flows given in the following table. Assume the minimum acceptable rate of return of 8%. Which projects should be accepted if they are independent projects? Would the selection of the projects change if the cost of capital were 12%?

Consider two investments A and B with the following sequences of cash flows: Net Cash Flow n Project A Project B 0 -$120,000 -$100,000 1 20,000 15,000 2 20,000 15,000 3 120,000 130,000 (a) Compute the IRR for each investment. (b) At MARR = 15%, determine the acceptability of each project. (c) If A and B are mutually exclusive projects, which project would you select, based on the rate of return on incremental investment?

You are choosing between two projects. The cash flows for the projects are given in the following table ($ million): Project Year 0 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 - $51 - $102 $25 $19 $18 $40 $21 $48 $14 $59 A В a. What are the IRRS of the two projects? b. If your discount rate is 5.3%, what are the NPVS of the two projects? c. Why do IRR and NPV rank the two projects differently? a. What are the IRRS of the two projects? The IRR for project A is %. (Round to one decimal place.) The IRR for project B is %. (Round to one decimal place.) b. If your discount rate is 5.3%, what are the NPVS of the two projects? If your discount rate is 5.3%, the NPV for project A is $ million. (Round to two decimal places.) If your discount rate is 5.3%, the NPV for project B is $ million. (Round to two decimal places.) c. Why do IRR and NPV rank the two projects differently? (Select from the drop-down menus.) NPV and IRR rank the two projects differently because they are measuring different things. is…

The following are the cash flows of two projects: Year Project A Project B -$200 -$200 01234 Project A B If the opportunity cost of capital is 11%, what is the profitability index for each project? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 4 decimal places.) Profitability index 80 80 80 80 00 100 100 100 Is the project with the highest profitability index also the one with the highest NPV? Yes No
