Project S has a cost of $10,000 and is expected to produce benefits (cash flows) of $3,000 per year for 5 years. Project L costs $25,000 and is expected to produce cash flows of $7,400 per year for 5 years. Calculate the two projects’ NPVs, IRRs, MIRRs, and PIs, assuming a cost of capital of 12%. Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive, using each ranking method? Which should actually be selected?
Define each of the following terms: Capital budgeting; payback period; discounted payback period Independent projects; mutually exclusive projects Net present value (NPV) method; internal rate of return (IRR) method; profitability index (PI) Modified internal rate of return (MIRR) method NPV profile; crossover rate Nonnormal cash flow projects; normal cash flow projects; multiple IRRs Reinvestment rate assumption Replacement chain; economic life; capital rationing; equivalent annual annuity (EAA)
CAPITAL BUDGETING CRITERIA: MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE PROJECTS Project S requires an initial outlay at t = 0 of 17,000, and its expected cash flows would be 5,000 per year for 5 years. Mutually exclusive Project L requires an initial outlay at t = 0 of 30,000, and its expected cash flows would be 8,750 per year for 5 years. If both projects have a WACC of 12%, which project would you recommend? Explain.
Assume San Lucas Corporation in MAD 26-1 assigns the following probabilities to the estimated annual net cash flows: a. Compute the expected value of the annual net cash flows. b. Determine the expected net present value of the equipment, assuming a desired rate of return of 10% and the expected annual net cash flows computed in part (a). Use the present value tables (Exhibits 2 and 5) provided in the chapter in determining your answer. c. Based on your results in parts (a) and (b), should San Lucas Corporation invest in the equipment?
