Why is there conflict between the NPV and IRR criteria between projects Y and Z? Which is typically considered the best decision criteria to use and why?
a. Explain why the IRR may contradict the ranking of NPV and therfore not recmmeneded to use when choosing among mutually exclusive projects.\ (5 lines) b. Give two possible examples of such projects. (choose realistic projects, or actual projects you know of) Exaplain your choice?
What factors verify that the project is marginally acceptable?
In which situation are the project lives unequal?
When faced with a set of independent projects, one should select (choose the best answer) A. all projects with an IRR greater than the hurdle rate or a Pl greater than one. B. all projects with a positive NPV or a Pl greater than the one. all projects with a positive NPV or an IRR greater than the hurdle rate or a PI greater than one. C.all projects with a positive NPV or an IRR grcater than the hurdle rate. D. all projects with a Pl greater than one, all projects with a positive NPV E. all projects with an IRR greater than the hurdle rate
29....When using the NPV method the decision making rationale includes the following (select all that apply): a.If projects are mutually exclusive, accept the project with the highest positive NPV. b.If projects are independent, accept if the project NPV<0. c.If projects are independent, accept if the project NPV>0 d.If the projects are mutually exclusive, accept the project with lowest NPV.
What would you recommend if the benefit / cost ratio is >1: Select one: a. The project must be accepted. b. Benefit / cost ratio cannot be >1 c. The project must be rejected. d. Benefit / cost ratio always =1
