1. (a) What is each project's IRR?
(b) If each project's cost of capital were 10%, which project, if either, should be selected? If the cost of capital were 17%, what would be the proper choice?
2. (a) What is each project's MIRR at the cost of capital of 10%? At 17%? (Hint: Consider Period 7 as the end of Project B's life.)
3. What is the crossover rate, and what is its significance?
Use the following information for Question 4:
The staff of Porter Manufacturing has estimated the following net after-tax cash flows and probabilities for a new manufacturing process:
Line 0 gives the cost of the process, Lines 1 through 5 give operating cash flows, and Line 5* contains the estimated salvage values. Porter's cost of capital for an average-risk project is 10%.
