- ZumBahlen Inc. is considering the following mutually exclusive projects: Year 0 1 2 3 4 Project A Cash Flow -$5,000 O a. 16.15% O b. 20.15% O c. 18.15% O d. 22.15% 200 800 Project B Cash Flow -$5,000 3,000 3,000 3,000 5,000 At what cost of capital will the net present value of the two projects be the same? (That is, what is the "crossover" rate?) 800 200arrow_forward3. You are analyzing the following two mutually exclusive projects and have developed the following Which information. Please calculate the IRRS for the two projects and the crossover rate. project should you accept if the cost of capital is 5%, and which project should you accept if the cost of capital is 10%? Year 0 1 3 Project A Cash Flow -$84,500 $29,000 $40,000 $27,000 IRR A: IRR B: Crossover Rate: If WACC-5%, accept If WACC=10%, accept Project B Cash Flow -$76,900 $25,000 $35,000 $26,000 Jarrow_forwardIf the net present value (NPV) of project A is + $200, and that of project B is + $80, then the net present value of the combined project is: +$80 0 +$280 +$200arrow_forward
- Mutually exclusive projects and NPV you have been assigned the task of evaluating two mutually exclusive projects with the following projected cash flows. year. Project A (cash flow) Project B 0 $(102,000) $(102,000) 1 31,000 0 2 31,000 0 3 31,000 0 4 31,000 0 5 31,000 240,000 if the appropriate discount rate on these is 11 percent, which would be chosen and why? the NPV of project A is $arrow_forwardProjects W and X are mutually exclusive projects with different lives. At the end of the life of the chosen project, the project will be repeated in perpetuity. Both projects have positive NPVs. Which project should be selected? Question 1Select one: a. Both projects b. Neither project c. The project with the highest NPV. d. The project with the highest EAA.arrow_forwardProject S requires an initial outlay at t= 0 of $16,000, and its expected cash flows would be $5,500 per year for 5 years. Mutually exclusive Project L requires an initial outlay at t= 0 of $27,500, and its expected cash flows would be $10,150 per year for 5 years. If both projects have a WACC of 14%, which project would you recommend? Select the correct answer. Ca. Project S, because the NPVs > NPVL. Ob. Both Projects S and L, because both projects have IRR's > 0. Oc. Both Projects S and L, because both projects have NPV's > 0. Od. Project I because the NPVL > NPVs. Oe. Neither Project S nor L, because each project's NPV < 0.arrow_forward
- 3. Lopez Industries has identified the following two mutually exclusive capital investment projects: Year Project A Project B 0 1 2 3 4 -16000 400 800 13000 -15500 12500 8000 800 14000 800 What is the IRR for each of these projects? If you apply the IRR decision rule, which project should the company accept? Is this decision necessarily correct? If the required return is 11%, what is the NPV for each of these projects? Which project should the firm accept if they apply the NPV rule?arrow_forwardThe following information is available on two mutually exclusive projects. Project Year 0 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 A -$700 $200 $300 $400 $500 B -$700 $600 $300 $200 $100 If the required rate of return is 10%, which project should be selected using the net present value (NPV) method? Group of answer choices A Barrow_forwardThe following information is available on two mutually exclusive projects. All numbers are in ‘000s. Project Year 0 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 A $700 $300 $300 $400 $400 B $700 $600 $300 $200 $100 a: If the minimum acceptable rate of return is 10%, which project should be selected using the Net Present Value (NPV) method? Which project should be selected if the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) method is used? b: At what cross‐over rate would the firm be indifferent between the two projects? What is the NPV for both projects at the crossover rate? c: How much should cash flow in year 3 for project B increase or decrease in order for NPV(B) to be equal to NPV(A)?arrow_forward
- Consider the following two mutually exclusive projects: Year Cash Flow(X) Cash Flow(Y) 0 –$ 19,900 –$ 19,900 1 8,825 10,050 2 9,050 7,775 3 8,775 8,675 c) Calculate the crossover rate for these two projects. Consider the following two mutually exclusive projects: Year Cash Flow(X) Cash Flow(Y) 0 –$ 19,900 –$ 19,900 1 8,825 10,050 2 9,050 7,775 3 8,775 8,675 you have solved all other parts only balance Part C c) Calculate the crossover rate for these two projects.arrow_forwardGiven mutually exclusive projects, which project should be selected given the MARR - 9%? Note that the actual rate of return for each of the project is greater than or equal to the MARR. The notation shows the project with the higher first cost minus the project with the lower first cost. (i.e. Ain-A = 8.2%neans that Project B has the higher first cost). The projects in order of smallest to largest first costs are Project A, then Project B and lastly Project C. Ain-A = 8.2% Aic-A = 10.1% Aie u = 10.5% O Project A O Project 8 O Project Carrow_forward
