Consider the following two independent investment projects: Cash flows of project A: 0 1 2 3 T + + 100 -130 50 5 Cash flows of project B: 0 2 3 4 5 + + + + 다. -130 90 40 40 40 40 If management only accepts projects that pay back in 3 years or less, according to the discounted payback period rule, which projects will be selected? Use a discount rate of 10%.
Two mutually exclusive projects have the following projected cash flows: Year Project A Cash flow Project B Cash Flow 0 -$50,000 -$50,000 1 25,625 0 2 25,625 0 3 25,625 0 4 25,625 0 5 15,625 150,000 If the required rate of return on these projects is 20 percent, what are the NPVs of two projects? Which project should be better? If they are standalone projects, what is the choice? If IRRA = 40.36%, IRRB = 24.57%, which project should...
