Year Expected net cash flowsProject X Project Y
0 (10,000) (10,000)
1 6,500 3,500
2 3,000 3,500
3 3,000 3,500
4 1,000 3,500
  1. i. Calculate each project's payback, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and profitability index (PI).
  2. ii. Which project or projects should be accepted if they are independent?

Answer: Suggest Edit

PROJECT X: Cost of project = Rs. 10,000
Payback period is the time required by the project to recover its costs.
Year 1 the project will recover Rs. 6,500
Year 2 the project will recover Rs 3000
Year 3 project will recover the remaining Rs. 500 in 1st month of 3rd yr. So payback period for Project X is 2 yrs and 1 month.
PROJECT Y: Cost of project= Rs 10,000
Year 1 project will recover Rs 3,500
