You are considering two independent projects. Project A has an initial cost of $125,000 and cash inflows of $46,000, $79,000, and $51,000 for Years 1 to 3, respectively. Project B costs $135,000 with expected cash inflows for Years 1 to 3 of $50,000, $30,000, and $100,000, respectively. The required return for both projects is 16 percent. Based on IRR, you should: Select one: accept both projects. accept Project A and reject Project B. accept Project B and reject Project A. reject both projects. accept either one of the projects, but not both.

Answer:

Accept Project A and reject Project B

Explanation:

See the images to get the answer.

Decision: Required rate of return = 16% = Cost of capital.

If Internal rate of return (IRR) > the cost of capital = Accept the project.

If Internal rate of return (IRR) < the cost of capital = Reject the project.

From the basis of the formula, we can accept the project A because the IRR of Project A (19%) is higher than the cost of capital (16%). On the other hand, we can reject the project B because the IRR of Project B (14%) is smaller than the cost of capital (14%).
