Westchester Corp. is considering two equally risky, mutually exclusive projects, both of which have normal cash flows. Project A
inn [45]

Answer:

d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment

While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage

Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR

Therefore option d is correct

Suppose a person's utility is only a function of their consumption of diet soda and they do not care which brand, diet coke (dc)
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: b). falls from a positive amount to another positive amount

Explanation: Given that diet coke and diet pepsi give the consumer equal level of satisfaction. Diet coke and diet pepsi are substitutes, since, the consumer does not care about consuming diet pepsi and diet coke.  For substitute goods the consumer will buy the cheapest of the two. When pdc (price of diet coke) rises but it remains less than pdp(price of diet pepsi) then the consumption of dc will decrease but it will still be above the consumption of dp. Since it is still relatively less expensive than diet pepsi. So the consumer will buy diet coke than diet pepsi, which means consumption of diet coke, dc falls from one positive amount to another positive amount.
