Your company is considering starting a new project in either France or Thailandthese projects are mutually exclusive, so your boss has asked you to analyze the projects and then tell her which project will create more value for the companys stockholders.

The French project is a six-year project that is expected to produce the following cash flows:

Project:	French
Year 0:	$1,120,000
Year 1:	$370,000
Year 2:	$390,000
Year 3:	$420,000
Year 4:	$330,000
Year 5:	$220,000
Year 6:	$95,000

The Thai project is only a three-year project; however, your company plans to repeat the project after three years. The Thai project is expected to produce the following cash flows:

Project:	Thai
Year 0:	$520,000
Year 1:	$275,000
Year 2:	$280,000
Year 3:	$295,000

Because the projects have unequal lives, you have decided to use the replacement chain approach to evaluate them. You have determined that the appropriate cost of capital for both projects is 10%. Assuming that the Thai projects cost and annual cash inflows do not change when the project is repeated in three years and that the cost of capital remains at 10%, answer the following questions:
