Mantap Industries has three projects under consideration. Project L is a lower-than-averagerisk project, project A is an average-risk project, and project H is a higher-than-average-riskproject. You have gathered the following information to determine if one or more of theseprojects has an acceptable rate of return for the firm.• Sources of financing 50% debt and 50% equity• Rd = 8.00% before taxes• Tax Rate = 30%• Average beta for Mantap Industries = 1.0• Rm = 13.00%• Rf = 4.00%• Adjusted WACC = 9.30%• Beta for project L = 0.80, for project A = 1.00, and for project H = 1.20• IRRL = 9.00%, IRRA = 10.00%, and IRRH = 11.00%Calculate the required rate of return for each project and determine which, if any, projects are acceptable to the firm
Tomodachi Co plans to invest in either Projects M or N which are described below. The company's cost of capital is 15%, the market return is 15% and the risk-free rate is 5%. The beta for project M is 1.20 and the beta for project N is 1.40. What is the NPV for Project M when using the risk-adjusted discount rate method of project evaluation? Initial Investment Project M $700,000 Project N $780,000 Year 1 $300,000 $220,000 2 $300,000 320,000 3 $300,000 380,000 4 $300,000 460,000 or You must decide firm which of the proposed projects should be accepted for the upcoming year since only $6 million is available.
