The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel file below. Download the spreadsheet and perform the required analysis to answer the questions below. Do not round intermediate calculations.

If each project's cost of capital is $10\%,$ which project should be selected? Round your answers to the nearest cent.

NPV $($Project A$)$: $ fill in the blank $2$

NPV $($Project B$)$: $ fill in the blank $3$

should be selected.

If the cost of capital is $17\%,$ what project is the proper choice? Round your answers to the nearest cent.

NPV $($Project A$)$: $ fill in the blank $5$

NPV $($Project B$)$: $ fill in the blank $6$

should be selected.

Construct NPV profiles for Projects A and B$.$ Choose the correct graph.

What is each project's IRR? $($Hint: Using the Excel IRR function, set the guess parameter to be $10\%.)$ Round your answers to two decimal places.

IRR $($Project A$)$: fill in the blank $9$

$\%$

IRR $($Project B$)$: fill in the blank $10$

$\%$

What is the crossover rate, and what is its significance? $($Hint: Using the Excel IRR function, set the guess parameter to be $10\%.)$ Round your answer for the crossover rate to two decimal places and for the NPV to the nearest cent.

The crossover rate is fill in the blank $11$

$\%.$ The crossover rate represents the cost of capital at which the two projects have the NPV of $ fill in the blank $12$
