Question

Project S has a cost of $9,000 and is expected to produce benefits (cash flows) of $2,700 per year for 5 years. Project L costs $26,000 and is expected to produce cash flows of $7,100 per year for 5 years.

a. Calculate the two projects' NPVs, assuming a cost of capital of 10%. Round your answers to the nearest cent.

project S                    $

Project L                    $

Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive?

b. Calculate the two projects' IRRs. Round your answers to two decimal places.

project S                 %

project L                  %

Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive?

C.Calculate the two projects' MIRRs, assuming a cost of capital of 10%. Round your answers to two decimal places.

project s               %

project L                %

Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive?

Calculate the two projects' PIs, assuming a cost of capital of 10%. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Project S

Project L

Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive?

Which project should actually be selected?

Explanation / Answer

Answer to question a.

Project S

Project S to be chosen.

Answer to question b.

Project S = 15.25% approx

Project L = 11.50% approx

Project S to be chosen for higher IRR.

Answer to question c.

Project S = 35.33%

Project L = 22.39%

Project S to be chosen.

Answer to question d.

PI = Total cash inflow / cash outflow

Project S = 1.12

Project L = 1.04

Project S tp be chosen.
