a. If the opportunity cost of capital is 8%, which of these two projects would you accept (A, B, or both)?
b. Suppose that you can choose only one of these two projects. Which would you choose? The discount rate is still 8%.
c. Which one would you choose if the cost of capital is 16%?
d. What is the payback period of each project?
e. Is the project with the shortest payback period also the one with the highest NPV?
f. What are the internal rates of return on the two projects?
g. Does the IRR rule in this case give the same answer as NPV?
h. If the opportunity cost of capital is 8%, what is the profitability index for each project?
i. Is the project with the highest profitability index also the one with the highest NPV?
j. Which measure should you use to choose between the projects?
You are considering two projects with the following cash flows:
Project X Project Y
Year 1 $7,000 $5,000
Year 2 6,000 4,000
Year 3 4,000 3,000
Year 4 1,000 6,000
Which of the following statements are true concerning these two projects?
I. Both projects have the same future value at the end of year 4, given a positive rate of return.
II. Project X has a higher present value than Project Y, given a positive discount rate.
III. Both projects have the same future value given a zero rate of return.
IV. Project Y has a higher present value than Project X, given a positive discount rate.
Multiple choice options:
II only
I and III only
II and III only
II and IV only
I, III, and IV only
