Requirements - X 1. Use Excel to compute the NPV and IRR of the two plans. Which plan, if any, should the company pursue? 2. Explain the relationship between NPV and IRR. Based on this relationship and the company's required rate of return, are your answers as expected in Requirement 1? Why or why not? 3. After further negotiating, the company can now invest with an initial cost of $8,100,000. Recalculate the NPV and IRR. Which plan, if any, should the company pursue?
