Question: Consider two projects, T and F, which are mutually exclusive , have unequal lives , and are repeatable . Their cash flows are depicted in
Consider two projects, T and F, which are mutually exclusive, have unequal lives, and are repeatable. Their cash flows are depicted in the table below:
| Project | Year 0 | Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | Year 4 |
| T | -$105 million | $62 million | $62 million |
|
|
| F | -$105 million | $33 million | $33 million | $33 million | $33 million |
Assuming a WACC of 7.5%, use the replacement chain approach (RCA) to compare the projects and pick the better choice, given repetition. Note that the investment in project T rises by 7% when repeated, but the other cash flows stay the same.
A) Project T is better as its NPV is higher by $89,657
B) Project T is better as its NPV is higher by $797,274
C) Project F is preferable without repetition, and T is preferable with repetition
D) Project F is better as its NPV is higher by $797,274
E) Project F is better as its NPV is higher by $89,657
