Current Attempt in Progress

If a company uses a $13\mathrm{.}1\%$ discount rate with the net present value method, and then does the same analysis, but with a $16\mathrm{.}8\%$

discount rate, which of the following is likely to occur?

The $16\mathrm{.}8\%$ rate will show the project is more profitable than the $13\mathrm{.}1\%$ rate.

The relative profitability of the two studies depends only on the timing of the cash flows, not on the discount rate.

Both rates will produce the same net present value.

The $13\mathrm{.}1\%$ rate will show the project is more profitable than the $16\mathrm{.}8\%$ rate.
