Question

Consider two mutually exclusive new product launch projects that Nagano Golf is considering. Assume the discount rate for both products is 14 percent.

    

Project A:	Nagano NP-30.
	Professional clubs that will take an initial investment of $650,000 at Year 0.
	For each of the next 5 years, (Years 1-5), sales will generate a consistent cash flow of $285,000 per year.
	Introduction of new product at Year 6 will terminate further cash flows from this project.

    

Project B:	Nagano NX-20.
	High-end amateur clubs that will take an initial investment of $680,000 at Year 0.
	Cash flow at Year 1 is $200,000. In each subsequent year, cash flow will grow at 10 percent per year.
	Introduction of new product at Year 6 will terminate further cash flows from this project.
