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 10%. 0 1 2 3 4 600 380 Project A Project B -1,100 -1,100 270 420 340 790 200 315 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? -Select- V If the projects were mutually exclusive, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? -Select- Could there be a conflict with project acceptance between the NPV and IRR approaches when projects are mutually exclusive? -Select The reason is -Select- Reinvestment at the -Select- V is the superior assumption, so when mutually exclusive projects are evaluated the -Select- approach should be used for the capital budgeting decision. If the projects were independent, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? -Select- Neither Project A Project B Both projects A and B tually exclusive, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? Could there be a conflict with project acceptance between the NPV and IRR approaches when projects are mutually If the projects were mutually exclusive, which project(s) would be accepted according to the IRR method? -Select- Neither Project A Project B Both projects A and B t with project acceptance between the NPV and IRR approaches when projects are mutually ex Could there be a conflict with project acceptance between the NPV and IRR approaches when projects are mutually exclusive? -Select- Yes No 5-Select- The reason -Select- the NPV and IRR approaches use the same reinvestment rate assumption and so both approaches reach the same project acceptance when mutually exclusive the NPV and IRR approaches use different reinvestment rate assumptions and so there can be a conflict in project acceptance when mutually exclusive projects are Reinvestmei Ur the capital budgeting decision. pproach should be used for the capital budgeting Reinvestment at the -Select- v is the superior assumption, so when mutually exclusive projects are evaluated th -Select- decision.
