Project X
Project Y

Rs. (5000)
Rs. (5000)

- Calculate each project’s payback period, net present value (NPV), and internal rate of return (IRR). [3]
- Which project or projects should be accepted if they are independent? [0.5]
- Which project should be accepted if they are mutually exclusive? [0.5]
d. How might a change in the cost of capital produces a conflict between the NPV and IRR rankings of these two projects?
