Use the data below for problems 6 to 10.

Both projects have an 11% cost of capital. 6. What is each project’s initial NPV without replication? 7. What is each project’s equivalent annual annuity? 8. Now apply the replacement chain approach to determine the shorter projects’ extended NPV. Which project should be chosen? 9. Now assume that the cost to replicate Project Y in 2 years will increase to $600,000 because of inflationary pressures. How should the analysis be handled now, and which project should be chosen?
