Would you accept a project where you had an initial investment of $10,000,000 but the NPV was only $10,000? Group of answer choices A. There is not enough information B.Yes, because you will make the required return each year and the NPV in additional to the required return. C. No, the NPV is too small for such a large initial investment

Project X has an initial investment at time O of $1,000 and it returns $250 one year from now and$1,000 two years from now. Project Y has an initial investment at time O of $2,000 and it returns$2,534.40 two years from now. The risk level and the net present values of the two projects areequal. Calculate the required return for project X. Answer: 12% please do not solve with excel
Your firm uses a 5-year payback period cut-off. Project X has a payback period of 4.25 years. Your manager still has decided to reject the project. Which of the following is NOT a good reason for rejecting Project X? Multiple Choice Project X has a negative NPV Project X has an IRR less than the hurdle rate Project X does not provide requisite liquidity Project X has a Pl of 0.82 The firm has scarcity of capital to accept such projects
Basic NPV methods tell us that the value of a project today is NPV0. Time value of money issues also lead us to believe that if we choose not to do the project that it will be worth NPV1 one period from now, such that NPV0 > NPV1. Why then do we see some firms choosing to defer taking on a project. Be complete and thorough in your answer.
Suppose that you could invest in the following projects but have only $24,480 to invest. Which projects would you choose? Project Cost NPV w $ 7,970 $ 3,000 x 10,990 7,530 y 8,500 4,280 z 6,750 3,890 You should invest in project(s)?
Consider two mutually exclusive alternatives and the do-nothing approach. Project X has an initial investment of $175 and annual positive cash flows of $65 for four years. Project Y has an initial investment of $88 and annual positive cash flows of $25 for four years. Determine the following: at what interest rates Project X would be attractive? at what interest rates would Project Y be attractive? at what interest rates would it be best to do nothing.
A firm evaluates all of its projects by applying the NPV decision rule. A project under consideration has the following cash flows: Year Cash Flow -$ 41,000 20,000 23,000 14,000 1 What is the NPV of the project if the required return is 11 percent? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) NPV At a required return of 11 percent, should the firm accept this project? O Yes O No
Suppose you are a small business owner and are considering investing in a new project that has an expected cash flow of $100,000 in year 1, $150,000 in year 2, and $250,000 in year 3. The initial investment required for the project is $400,000. You have a required rate of return of 10% for this project. Is it a good investment? Justify your investment decision. b) After further careful evaluation, you ascertain that the required rate of return for a similar industry project is 7%. Re-evaluate the investment opportunity using the new required rate of return. Does your recommendation change?
Each of the following scenarios is independent. Assume that all cash flows are after-tax cash flows. a. Campbell Manufacturing is considering the purchase of a new welding system. The cash benefits will be $480,000 per year. The system costs $2,950,000 and will last 10 years. b. Evee Cardenas is interested in investing in a women's specialty shop. The cost of the investment is $280,000. She estimates that the return from owning her own shop will be $45,000 per year. She estimates that the shop will have a useful life of 6 years. c. Barker Company calculated the NPV of a project and found it to be $63,900. The project's life was estimated to be 8 years. The required rate of return used for the NPV calculation was 10%. The project was expected to produce annual after-tax cash flows of $135,000. Required: 1. Compute the NPV for Campbell Manufacturing, assuming a discount rate of 12%. If required, round all present value calculations to the nearest dollar. Use the minus sign to indicate a…
Which of the following projects would you feel safest in accepting? Assume the opportunity cost of capital is 12% for each project. ☐(a) “Project A” that has a small, but negative, NPV. ☐(b) “Project B” that has a positive NPV when discounted at 10%. ☐(c) “Project C” that has a cost of capital that exceeds its internal rate of return. ☐(d) “Project D” that has a zero NPV when discounted at 14%. d

Assume that you have two investment alternatives: the first project produces $125 for sure, and the second project produces $150 with probability 2/5. You can borrow $110 from your financial institution for one project (investment) if you show an asset as a collateral. Suppose that you maximize your expected profit, what would be the minimum level of collateral that make you select the safe project?
Suppose that you could invest in the following projects but have only $29,700 to invest. How would you make your decision and in which projects would you invest? Project Cost A $7,850 B C D 11,060 9,200 6,540 NPV $3,200 6,460 4,150 3,090 You should invest in project(s)
