iris [78.8K]

Answer:

The first project should be chosen

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

To determine which project to accept, calculate the NPV for the two projects

The first option

Cash flow in year 0 = $-25 million

Cash flow each year for year 1 - 5 = $10 million

Cash flow in year 6 =  $10 million - $15 million = $-5 million

I = 9.5

NPV = $10.50 million

Option two

Cash flow in year 0 = $-12 million

Cash flow each year for year 1 - 6 = $4 million

I = 9.5

NPV = $5.68 million

The first option should be chosen because the NPV of the first option yields the higher NPV

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
