1. Problem 11-11
Capital budgeting criteria: mutually exclusive projects
Project S costs $12,000 and its expected cash flows would be $6,000 per year for 5 years.
Mutually exclusive Project L costs $38,500 and its expected cash flows would be $9,300 per
year for 5 years. If both projects have a WACC of 12%, which project would you recommend?
Select the correct answer.I. Project S, since the NPVS > NPVL.II. Neither S or L, since each
project's NPV < 0.III. Both Projects S and L, since both projects have IRR's > 0.IV. Project L,
since the NPVL > NPVS.V. Both Projects S and L, since both projects have NPV's > 0.
Solution
Project S should be selected as NPVS > NPVLProject SyearCash flowsPVF @ 12%PV0-
