- Suppose that your organization is deciding which of four projects to bid on, as summarized in the following table. Assume that all up-front investments are not recovered, so they are shown as negative profits. Draw a diagram and calculate the EMV for each project. Write a few paragraphs explaining which projects you would bid on. Be sure to use the EMV information and your personal risk tolerance to justify your answer.Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. An NPV profile graph shows how a project's payback varies as the cost of capital changes. b. The NPV profile graph for a normal project will generally have a positive (upward) slope as the life of the project increases. c. An NPV profile graph is designed to give decision makers an idea about how a project's risk varies with its life. d. An NPV profile graph is designed to give decision makers an idea about how a project's contribution to the firm's value varies with the cost of capital. e. We cannot draw a project's NPV profile unless we know the appropriate WACC for use in evaluating the project's NPV. Provide explanation for the choiceWhat Suppose your organization is deciding which of four projects to bid on. Information on each is in the table below.

- Two investment projects are under analysis and, due to budget constraints, only one of them can be selected. The investor should select the project: a. Based on absolute metric of value b. With higher internal rate of returnc. With lower discounted payback periodI asked this question before, but for some reason, even though it was answred I cannot see it, it marks an error when I try to open it. So here it is again: Comparing Investment Criteria. Define each of the following investment rules and discuss any potential shortcomings of each. In your definition, state the criterion for accepting or rejecting independent projects under each rule. a. Payback period. b. Internal rate of return. c. Profitability index. d. Net present value. Thank you!For capital budgeting projects, which of the following statements is CORRECT? Group of answer choices An extremely high required rate of return should be used to find the NPV of a relatively low risk project. All of these answer choices are correct. If a project’s NPV is less than zero, then its IRR must be less than the required rate of return. If a project’s NPV is greater than zero, then its IRR must be less than zero. The lower the required rate of return, the lower the calculated NPV.
- You should accept a project when the ?: net present value is negative. profitability index is positive. payback period exceeds the required period. AAR is greater than the required return. 7. Which one of the following statements is correct? The payback period is also referred to as the benefit-cost ratio. The internal rate of return can be reliably used for all independent projects. The profitability index is used when the investment funds are limited. The net present value should not be used to rank mutually exclusive projects. 8. You should accept a project when the ?: net present value is negative. profitability index is less than 1 but greater than 0. discounted payback period is less than the required period. AAR is less than the required return. 9. The crossover point ? : is used to determine which one of two internal rates of return for a project should be used when determining if a project should be accepted. 2. is the…What are the shortcomings of the internal rate of return criterion? How do you make an investment decision based on the IRR? How would the NPV of the same project look?Which of the following is CORRECT? Select one: a. If the NPV of a project is negative, the IRR for the project must also be negative. b. A project's MIRR can never exceed its IRR. c. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR less than WACC, the project must have a positive NPV. d. If Project 1's IRR exceeds Project 2's IRR, then 1 must have a higher NPV than 2. e. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR greater than WACC, the project must have a positive NPV. You purchase a house for $250,000. After you make your down payment of $50,000, you are financing $200,000 for 30 years at an annual percentage rate of 5.4%. How much are your monthly payments? Select one: a. Less than $1,000 b. Between $1,000 and $1,050 c. Between $1,050 and $1,100 d. Between $1,100 and $1,150 e. Greater than $1,200
- In a few sentences, answer the following question as completely as you can. According to your textbook, “an investment should be accepted if the net present value is positive and rejected if it is negative” (p. 239). What does an NPV of zero mean?If you were a financial decision maker facing a project with NPV of zero (or close to zero) what would you do? Can you think of any other factors that might influence your decision?This is a situation where you have mutually exclusive capital budgets to choose from. You look at an NPV profile knowing that the cost of capital is smaller than the cross-over point. In this area of the graph,Group of answer choices A.You should never select any capital project when the cost of capital (WACC) is less than the cross over point. B.In this situation you should not use the IRR nor the NPV to choose between capital budgeting projects. C.if you choose based on which project has the highest IRR, you will make an incorrect decision. Instead you should choose the project with the highest NPV. D.if you choose based on which project has the highest NPV, you will make an incorrect decision. You should choose the project with the highest IRR.What are the internal rates of return (IRR) on the three projects? Does the IRR rule in this case give the same decision as NPV? How do you know? If the opportunity cost of capital is 11%, what is the profitability index for each project? Please analyze if, in general, decisions based on profitability index are consistent with decisions based on NPV. What is the most generally accepted measure to choose between the projects? Please justify your answer.
