solve a,b and c please asap. Shell Camping Gear, Inc., is considering two mutually exclusive projects. Each requires an initial investment of $100,000. John Shell, president of the company, has set a maximum payback period of 4 years. The after-tax cash inflows associated with each project are shown in the following table:Cash inflows (CFt)Year Project A Project B1      $10,000   $40,0002      $20,000   $30,0003      $30,000   $20,0004      $40,000   $10,0005      $20,000   $20,000a. Determine the payback period of each project. b. Because they are mutually exclusive, Shell must choose one. Which should the company invest in? c. Explain why one of the projects is a better choice than the other

Round your answers to the nearest cent. Project A: $ 200 BOLL Project B: I 5/07 Project B's standard deviation (013) is $6,185 and its coefficient of variation (CVB) is 0.80, What are the values of OA and CVA? Do not rand) intermediate calculations. Rand your answer for Standard deviation to the nearest cent and for coefficient of variation to two decimal places. σε: J CVA 6,500
Which year do I use to divide 23,980 to get the project payback period?
