D)
Net present value is the value that is calculated by deducting the preset value of the cash
outflow from present value of the inflows of the cash. NPV is basically used in making capital
budgeting decisions. The net present value is calculated basically to analyze the profitability of
the project and gives the idea of whether the company shall choose the option or not. The PV
factor plays an important role in the calculation of the NPV as the rate of return will discount the
factors and ultimately decide the plan that best fits the needs of the purchaser. Though according
to this rate all the projects can be acceptable as they have the positive NPV however the total
decision does not reside only on the basis of the NPV and the other factors must also be
considered, which are payback period and internal rate of return. Therefore it is advised to the
company that all the factors must be considered however, project A is feasible (Balyeat & Cagle,
2015).

E)
If the required payback period is two years it is advised to the company that the
discounting factor shall be less than 4% as the payback period at the return of the 4% is 2.04
years. The company will be able to pay back the amount after the period of the two years hence
the project will be acceptable only if the return does not exceed the 4% (Banerjee, 2015).
