Consider the following cash flows on two mutually exclusive projects: Year Project A Project B 0 –$ 56,000 –$ 71,000 1 36,000 35,000 2 31,000 44,000 3 26,000 47,000 The cash flows of Project A are expressed in real terms, whereas those of Project B are expressed in nominal terms. The appropriate nominal discount rate is 12 percent and the inflation rate is 3 percent. Calculate the NPV for each project. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) NPV FOR PROJECT A: NPV FOR PROJECT B:
Consider the following projects: Cash Flows ($) Project D E CO00 C101 -11,700 23,400 -21,700 37,975 Assume that the projects are mutually exclusive and that the opportunity cost of capital is 12%. a.

Consider two projects, T and F, which are mutually exclusive, have unequal lives, and are repeatable. Their cash flows are depicted in the table below: Project Year O Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 T -$105 million $62 million $62 million F -$105 million $33 million $33 million $33 million $33 million Assuming a WACC of 7.5%, use the replacement chain approach (RCA) to compare the projects and pick the better choice, given repetition. Note that the investment in project T rises by 7% when repeated, but the other cash flows stay the same. Project T is better as its NPV is higher by $89,657 O Project F is better as its NPV is higher by $89,657 O Project T is better as its NPV is higher by $797,274 O Project F is preferable without repetition, and T is preferable with repetition O Project F is better as its NPV is higher by $797,274
Given the data below about two mutually exclusive projects with conventional cash flows and the same initial outlay, which one of the following statements about the two projects is correct? Project A Project B NPV@r=0% $3,350 $2,775 IRR 24% 18% a. At any interest rate between 18% and 24%, Project B is preferred to Project A. b. At any interest rate £ 18%, Project B has a NPV 3 0 and Project B's NPV is greater than Project A's NPV. c. At any interest rate £ 24%, Project B has a NPV 3 0 but Project B's NPV is less than Project A's NPV. Od. At any interest rate (r) greater than 24%, Project A has a positive NPV and is preferred to Project B. e. At r = 12%, Project A is preferred to Project B.
