Question

Problem 11-6
NPV

Your division is considering two projects with the following cash flows (in millions):


What are the projects' NPVs assuming the WACC is 5%? Round your answer to two decimal places. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55.
Project A    $   million
Project B    $   million

What are the projects' NPVs assuming the WACC is 10%? Round your answer to two decimal places. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55.
Project A    $   million
Project B    $   million

Project A    $   million
Project B    $   million

What are the projects' IRRs assuming the WACC is 5%? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Project A   %
Project B   %

If the WACC were 5% and A and B were mutually exclusive, = Project B

If the WACC were 10% and A and B were mutually exclusive, = Neither A, nor B.

If the WACC were 15% and A and B were mutually exclusive, = Neither A, nor B
