A firm with a WACC of 13% is evaluating two projects, A and B, for this year’s capital budget. The after-tax cash flows are depicted as follows: Project A 0 1 2 3 4 5 | | | | | | -6,000 2,200 2,200 2,200 2,200 2,200 Project B 0 1 2 3 4 5 | | | | | | -18,000 5,800 5,800 5,800 5,800 5,800 Calculate NPV, IRR (Hint: between 24.00% and 24.50% for Project A; between 18.00% and 18.50% for Project B), MIRR, payback, and discounted payback for each project. [All answers should be corrected to 2 decimal places.] Assuming the two projects are independent, which one(s) would you recommend? If the projects are mutually exclusive, which would you recommend?
