Kim must install one or the other of the units; otherwise, the highly profitable plant would have to shut down. Two units are available, HCC and LCC (for high and low capital costs, respectively). HCC has a high capital cost but relatively low operating costs, while LCC has a low capital cost but higher operating costs because it uses more electricity. The costs of the units are shown here. Kim's WACC is 7%. 5 0 1 2 3 4 H + + + + HCC - $600,000 - $50,000 - $50,000 - $50,000 -$50,000 LCC - $100,000 $175,000 - $175,000 $175,000 $175,000 -$50,000 - $175,000 a. Which unit would you recommend? Explain. b. If Kim's controller wanted to know the IRRs of the two projects, what would you tell him? c.
