vitfil [10]

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%).
