An oil drilling company must choose between two mutually exclusive extraction projects, and each costs $12 million. Cash inflows include an annuity of $ 4million for the next 4 years for project A Cash inflows for project B consist of $3 million for 7 years WACC for both projects is 8%a) Estimate the cash flows and select or reject the project based on capitalbudgeting (NPV IRR and payback period )
Voyageur has two mutually exclusive projects under consideration. The required investment for each is $15,000. The required return on each is 6%. The cash flows are as follows Year 1 2 3 4 IRR PROJECT A $2,000 4,000 7,000 10,000 15.2% PROJECT B $8,000 6,000 4,000 2,000 16.1% a) By considering the cash flows produced by the two investments; which project do you select by using the NPV criterion? Which would be selected by using IRR? b) Why do NPV and IRR select different projects? c) Which project do you select and why
The Drillago Company is involved in searching for locations in which to drill for oil. The firm’s current project requires an initial investment of $15 million and has an estimated life of 10 years. The expected future cash inflows for the project are as shown in the following table: Year Cash inflows  1     $ 600,000 2        1,000,000 3        1,000,000 4        2,000,000 5        3,000,000 6        3,500,000 7        4,000,000 8        6,000,000 9         8,000,000 10      12,000,000 The firm’s current cost of capital is 13%. TO DO Create a spreadsheet to answer the following: Calculate the project’s net present value (NPV). Is the project acceptable under the NPV technique? Explain. \ Calculate the project’s internal rate of return (IRR). Is the project acceptable under the IRR technique? Explain. In this case, did the two methods produce the same results? Generally, is there a preference between the NPV and IRR techniques? Explain. d. Calculate the payback period for the…
