Question 1:
1. What are the NPV, PI, and IRR for projects A and B? What has caused the ranking
conflicts? Should project A or B be chosen? Assume that these projects are
not considered under a capital constraint.

I did the same for project B, taking the investment and CFs of project B into account.
The NPV for project A: 42.081,14
The NPV for project B: 36.908,34

I did the same for project B, taking the NPV and investment of project B into account.
The PI for project A: 1.56
The PI for project B: 1.49

The IRR for project B: 36.31%

- The fact that in project A the last cash flow is a rather high one explains the difference
in the internal rates of return as we can see that in project B the cash flows remain the
same at each t. The higher a cash flow is in time, the lower the PV of that cash flow
will be, which explains the lower IRR in project A.
- Project A should be chosen as we are seeking for wealth creation, and project A
creates more wealth. The PI for project A is also higher which implies a good project.


Question 2:
2. What are the NPV, PI, and IRR for projects C and D? Should project C or
D be chosen? Assume that these projects are not considered under a capital
constraint.
