Your Division Is Considering Two Projects Its Wacc Is 10

The division is considering two projects with a WACC of 10%. It provides the cash flows of the projects and asks to calculate various financial metrics like NPV, IRR, MIRR, paybacks. It also asks which project should be chosen based on independence and mutual exclusivity. The document asks to explain concepts like crossover rate and potential conflicts between NPV and IRR. It finishes by asking about MIRR and reasons for using NPV over IRR as the criterion.

Solved: Your division is considering two projects Its WACC

is 10

Your division is considering two projects. Its WACC is 10%, and the projects’ after-tax cash
flows (in millions of dollars) would be as follows:

a. Calculate the projects’ NPVs, IRRs, MIRRs, regular paybacks, and discounted paybacks.
b. If the two projects are independent, which project(s) should be chosen?
c. If the two projects are mutually exclusive and the WACC is 10%, which project(s) should be
chosen?
d. Plot NPV profiles for the two projects. Identify the projects’ IRRs on the graph.
e. If the WACC was 5%, would this change your recommendation if the projects were mutually
exclusive? If the WACC was 15%, would this change your recommendation? Explain your
answers.
f. The crossover rate is 13.5252%. Explain what this rate is and how it affects the choice
between mutually exclusive projects.
g. Is it possible for conflicts to exist between the NPV and the IRR when independent projects
are being evaluated? Explain your answer.
h. Now look at the regular and discounted paybacks. Which project looks better when judged by
the paybacks?
i. If the payback was the only method a firm used to accept or reject projects, what payback
should it choose as the cutoff point, that is, reject projects if their payouts are not below the
chosen cutoff? Is your selected cutoff based on some economic criteria, or is it more or less
arbitrary? Are the cutoff criteria equally arbitrary when firms use the NPV and/or the IRR as the
criteria? Explain.
j. Define the MIRR. What’s the difference between the IRR and the MIRR, and which generally
gives a better idea of the rate of return on the investment in a project?
k. Why do most academics and financial executives regard the NPV as being the single best
criterion and better than the IRR? Why do companies still calculateIRRs?
