Computation NPV and Payback Period and IRR and Selection of the Project

Projects A and B, of equal risk, are alternatives for expanding Rosa Company's capacity. The firm's cost of capital is 13%. The cash flows for each project are shown in the following table.

	Project A	Project B
Initial investment(CF₀)	$80,000	$50,000
Year(r)	Cash flows (CF)
1	$15,000	$15,000
2	20,000	15,000
3	25,000	15,000
4	30,000	15,000
5	35,000	25,000

a. Calculate each project's payback period.

b. Calculate the net present value (NPV) for each project.

c. Calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) for each project.

d. Draw the net present value profile for both projects or the same set of axes and discuss any conflict in ranking that may exist between NPV and IRR.

Summarise the preference dictated by each measure, and indicate which project you would recommend. Explain why?
