Rearden Metals is considering opening a strip mining operation to provide some of the raw materials needed in producing Rearden metal. The initial purchase of the land and the associated costs of opening up mining operations will cost $100 million today. The mine is expected to generate $16 million worth of ore per year for the next 12 years. At the end of the 12th year Rearden will need to spend $20 million to restore the land to its original pristine nature appearance. The number of potential IRRs that exist for Rearden's mining operation is equal to: O A. 2 OB. 1 O C. 12 O D. 0 C

After discovering a new gold vein in the balochistan mountains, ZSZ mining corporation must decide whether to go ajead and develop the deposit. The most cost effective method of mining gold is sulphuric acid extraction, a process that could result in environmental damage. Before proceeding with the extraction, ZSZ must spend Rs. 12000000 for new mining equipment and pay Rs. 1650000 for its installation. The gold mined will net the firm an estimated Rs 4350000 each year for the 5 year life of the vein. ZSZs cost of capital is 14%. For the purposes of this problem, assume that the cash inflows occur at the end of the year. What are the project's NPV and IRR? Should this project be undertaken if environmental impacts were not a consideration? How should environmental effects be considered when evaluating this, or any other project? How might these concepts affect the decision in part B?
