Question

Consider two mutually exclusive new product launch projects that Nagano Golf is considering. Assume the discount rate for both projects is 11 percent.

Project A: Nagano NP-30. Professional clubs that will take an initial investment of $980,000 at Time 0. Introduction of new product at Year 6 will terminate further cash flows from this project.

Project B: Nagano NX-20. High-end amateur clubs that will take an initial investment of $718,000 at Time 0. Introduction of new product at Year 6 will terminate further cash flows from this project.
