Evaluating projects with unequal lives Tasty Tuna Corporation is a U.S. firm that wants to expand its business internationally. It is considering potential projects in both Italy and Thailand, and the Italian project is expected to take six years, whereas the Thal project is expected to take only three years. However, the firm plans to repeat the Thai project after three years. These projects are mutually exclusive, so Tasty Tuna Corporation's CFO plans to use the replacement chain approach to analyze both projects. The expected cash flows for both projects follow: Project: Italian Year 0: -$975,000 Year 1: $350,000 Year 2: $370,000 Year 3: $390,000 Year 4: $320,000 Year 5: $115,000 Year 6: $80,000 Project: Thai Year O: -$490,000 Year 1: $250,000 Year 2: $265,000 Year 3: $275,000 If Tasty Tuna Corporation's cost of capital is 13%, what is the NPV of the Italian project? $191,893 $163,109 $211,082 $182,298 Assuming that the Thal project's cost and annual cash inflows do not change when the project is repeated in three years and that the cost of capital will remain at 13%, what is the NPV of the Thai project, using the replacement chain approach? $208,065 $219,016 $262,819 O $240,918
