ust be chosen). Notice that the IRR for both alternatives is 27.19%.
Alternatives
EOY X Y
0 -$100,000 -$100,000
1 $50,000 0
2 $51,000 0

Answer:

a) alternative Y should be chosen

b) alternative Y, because its NPV is higher

c) 27.19%

d) alternative X, because its NPV is only -$463 (alternative Y's NPV = - $727)

e) alternative X = 1.98 years

alternative Y = 2.49 years

f) alternative Y because its NPV is much higher when MARR = 15%, and when MARR increased to 27.5%, the difference between both projects' NPV was very small.

Explanation:

a and b)

NPV of alternative X = -$100,000 + $50,000/1.15 + $51,000/1.15² + $60,000/1.15³ = -$100,000 + $43,478 + $38,563 + $39,451 = $21,492

NPV of alternative Y = -$100,000 + $205,760/1.15³ = $35,291

c)

incremental cash flows:

-$50,000

-$51,000

$145,760

TIR = 27.19%

d)

NPV of alternative X = -$100,000 + $50,000/1.275 + $51,000/1.275² + $60,000/1.275³ = -$100,000 + $39,216 + $31,373 + $28,948 = -$463

NPV of alternative Y = -$100,000 + $205,760/1.275³ = -$727

e)

alternative X ⇒ 1 year + ($50,000 / $51,000) = 1.98 years

alternative Y ⇒ 2 years + ($100,000 / $205,760) = 2.49 years

The 20% off sale is a better deal than the $200 rebate or $150 coupon for the $1,500 dining set. The Porters budgeted $1,250 for
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:20% off is better and it is the only offer which is under the budget.

Explanation:Given,

The original cost of the dining set = $ 1,500,

If there is a off of 20%,

Then the discount on dinning table = 20% of 1500

= $ 300

So, the final amount of the dinning table after 20% off = 1500 - 300 = 1200 < 1250

Thus, it under the budget.

Now, in $ 200 rebate,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 200 = $ 1300 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.

While, In $150 coupon,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 150 = $ 1350 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.
