Calculation of Integrated Conflicting Rankings
Question
The High-Flying Growth Company (HFGC) has been growing very rapidly in recent years, making its shareholders rich in the process. The average annual rate of return on the stock in the last few years has been 20%, and HFGC managers believe that 20% is a reasonable figure for the firm’s cost of capital. To sustain a high growth rate, the HFGC CEO argues that the company must continue to invest in projects that offer the highest rate of return possible. Two projects are currently under review. The first is an expansion of the firm’s production capacity, and the second project involves introducing one of the firm’s existing products into a new market. Cash flows from each project appear in the following table.
a. Calculate the NPV, IRR, and PI for both projects.
b. Rank the projects based on their NPVs, IRRs, and PIs.
c. Do the rankings in part bagree or not? If not, why not?
d. The firm can only afford to undertake one of these investments, and the CEO favors the product introduction because it offers a higher rate of return (that is, ahigher IRR) than the plant expansion. What do you think the firm should do? Why?
Year Plant expansion Product introduction
0 -$3,500,000 -$500,000
1 1,500,000 250,000
2 2,000,000 350,000
3 2,500,000 375,000
4 2,750,000 425,000
Summary

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
1. Having a background of engineering I was pretty confident that I will have no problems with the assignments and homework that will be required to be submitted in my masters program. However there was increasing pressure of assignment submissions. I was spending too much time and effort on writing the assignments and not really gaining any knowledge. The online mechanical engineering tutors at TheReliableTutor.com helped minimize my research time and allowed me to actually gain knowledge from my course.

First impression leaves a very deep mark in somebody’s mind and my research proposal, written by one of the experts of HwA was the first impression which impressed my dissertation advisor in my college of Hamilton. After the research proposal I took further help in the actual research paper and got excellent grades.

Earlier I used to find excuses for not doing my location strategy homework, when Veronica, my friend told me about HwA and then everything fell into place. Starting from the strategic location assignments to the critical path measure problem solutions, their location strategy strategic location experts helped me get a straight A in all the homework.

When I saw the prices for civil engineering online tutoring with HwA I was not really sure what the quality of the tutoring would be like. But I was very impressed by the panel of civil engineering tutors at HwA and have already greatly benefited from the online tutoring sessions on Urban Engineering and Structural Analysis.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
