AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Project A

Years      Cashflows     Discount factor     Present values

0            250,000                    1                           -250,000

1-10            45,100                   6.144                     277,094.40

Sum of all present value=NPV=27,094.40

IRR (by using trial and error method) = 12.4696%

Note: Discount factor for the year 1-10 is calculated by using annuity formula i.e [1-(1+10%)]/10% = 6.144

Project B

Years Cashflows Discount factor  Present values

0        (350,000)           1                              (350,000)

1           72,500               0.91                   65,975  

2           65,500               0.83                    54,365  

3           73,800                  0.75                    55,350  

4            71,500                  0.68                    48,620  

5           69,800                  0.62                   43,276  

6           75,500             0.56                   42,280  

7           31,000                  0.51                            15,810  

8           47,500                  0.47                           22,325  

9           55,500                  0.42                   23,310  

10           29,200                  0.38                    11,096

Sum of all present values=NPV=32,407

IRR(by using trial and error method=12.4186%

On the basis of NPV project B is better because it gives higher NPV than project A. Whereas, Project A is better than project B on the basis of IRR because project A has slightly higher IRR than project B.

b)The conflict between both the investment appraisal technique is likely due to different cash flow patterns of both the project. In such situation decision should be based on NPV because this is an absolute measure

Which type of organization expects important decisions to be made by top-level managers?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

In the centralized organizations which mostly includes banks, army corporations, etc because in these organisation the policies are set by the top management and the lower level management have to follow their instructions. I remember when the japanese Cheif Executive was appointed as the CEO of Sony America the whole of the workers went to strike against him because his attitude was centralised oriented organization which he was used to in Japan and in America people love to work in decentralized organisation. So basically in centralised organisation, lower management are delivered less responsibilities regarding making decisions. They are only accountable for doing the job according to the top management.
