Assume you are presented with the following mutually exclusive investments whose expected net cash flows are as follows:
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%.

Calculate the variance of portfolio of the three securities
: Suppose you purchased $1,000 of Stock A with your own money. You then borrowed $500 and used this money to buy Stock B. This means that the portfolio weights are as follows: wA = 1000/1000 = 1.00; wB = 500/1000 = 0.50; wC = -500/1000 = - 0.50. Calcul..
