You are considering two mutually exclusiveprojects thathave the following characteristics:

Project A: Initial Investment of $100. Cash flow of 0 at year 1 and $144 at year 2.

Project B: Initial Investment of $50. Cash flow of $65 at year 1 and 0 at year 2.

Assume that the required rate of return is 15%.Please offer your recommendations for thebest project choice.
