Q:If the projects were independent, which project(s) would be accepted according ti the IRR method?OPTIONS:

-Neither

-Project A

-Project B

-Both Projects

Q:If the projects were mutually exclusive, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? OPTIONS:

-Neither

- project A

-project b

-both projects A & B

Q: The Reason is: OPTIONS:

-The NPV and IRR approaches use the same reinvestment rate assumption and to both approaches reach the same project acceptance when mutually

-The NPV and IRR approaches use different reinvestment rate assumptions and so there can be a conflict in project acceptance when mutually exclusive.

Q: Reinvestment at the (IRR or WACC) is the superior assumption, so when mutually projects are evaluated the (NPR or IRR) approach should be used for the capital budgeting decision. (please identify correct option)

Quantitative Problem: Bellinger Industries is considering two projects for inclusion in its capital budget, and you have been asked to do the analysis. Both projects' after-tax cash flows are shown on the time line below. Depreciation, salvage values, net operating working capital requirements, and tax effects are all included in these cash flows. Both projects have 4-year lives, and they have risk characteristics similar to the firm's average project. Bellinger's WACC is 9%. 0 1 2 3 4 320 390 Project A Project B -1,000 -1,000 650 250 270 420 255 840 What is Project A's IRR? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. % What is Project B's IRR? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. % If the projects were independent, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? Both projects A and BV If the projects were mutually exclusive, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? Project A Could there be a conflict with project acceptance between the NPV and IRR approaches when projects are mutually exclusive? Yes The reason is -Select- V approach should be used Reinvestment at the WACC is the superior assumption, so when mutually exclusive projects are evaluated the IRR for the capital budgeting decision
