Question

The IRR of normal Project X is greater than the IRR of normal Project Y, and both IRRS are greater than zero. Also, the
NPV of X is greater than the NPV of Y at the cost of capital. If the two projects are mutually exclusive, Project X should
definitely be selected, and the investment made, provided we have confidence in the data. Put another way, it is
impossible to draw NPV profiles that would suggest not accepting Project X. Group of answer choices True False

Multiple choice question. accept the project with the higher IRR accept the project with the lower NPV accept the project with the lower IRR accept the project with the higher NPV
Which of the following statement is correct Select one: a. A project is accepted when profitability index will be greater than one b. All statements are correct c. A project is accepted when net present value is greater than zero d. A project is accepted when payback period is less than the other project
Two investment projects are under analysis and, due to budget constraints, only one of them can be selected. The investor should select the project: a. Based on absolute metric of value b. With higher internal rate of returnc. With lower discounted payback period
e. IMPORTANT Note that from this example that a higher IRR for a nindividual alternative does not gurantee that the alternatvie is more economical than the one with a lower IRR. It is the incremental IRR value relative to the MARR that determines which alternative is more economical. The result of the incremental analysis are always the same as those of the PW,AW, or FW anaylsis
