After discounting all cash flows of projects with its opportunity coats, the net present
values of all three projects are (NPV)
Project A_NPV: +1432
Project B_NPV: -12200
Project C_NPV: +21485
values of all three projects are (NPV)
Project A_NPV: +1432
Project B_NPV: -12200
Project C_NPV: +21485
1: On the basis of NPV approach, which project(s) you would select if the projects are independent and why?
ANS _1 :If the projects are independent so the projects that have +NPV should be accepted in the given scenario project A and C have positive NPV
ANS _1 :If the projects are independent so the projects that have +NPV should be accepted in the given scenario project A and C have positive NPV
2: On the basis of NPV approach, which project(s) you would select if the projects are mutually exclusive and why
Mutually exclusives are those projects where we have to choose only one out of different options.
If the projects are mutually exclusive the one with higher positive net present value (+NPV) should be chosen
Mutually exclusives are those projects where we have to choose only one out of different options.
If the projects are mutually exclusive the one with higher positive net present value (+NPV) should be chosen
Ans_2: So in given scenario the best project is C with the higher positive npv 21485 among three projects so rationally chose project C
