Capital budgeting criteria: ethical considerations A mining company is considering a new project. Because the mine has received a permit, the project would be legal; but it would cause significant harm to a nearby river. The firm could spend an additional $10.66 million at Year 0 to mitigate the environmental Problem, but it would not be required to do so. Developing the mine (without mitigation) would cost $66 million, and the expected net cash inflows would be $22 million per year for 5 years. If the firm does invest in mitigation, the annual inflows would be $23 million. The risk adjusted WACC is 10%. Calculate the NPV and IRR with mitigation. Round your answers to two decimal places. Enter your answer for NPV in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55. NPV $ million IRR 15.23 % Calculate the NPV and IRR without mitigation. Round your answers to two decimal places. Enter your answer for NPV in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55. NPV $ million IRR 19.86 %
