Net present value
Project
1 Gross present value = PV of €12,000 at 10% to be received at the end of year 1

= €12,000 (0.909) = €10,908 Net present value
= €10,908 − €10,000 = €908
Project
2 Gross present value = PV of €17,500 at 10% to be received at the end of year 4

= €17,500 (0.683) = €11,952.50 Net present value
= €11,952.50 − €10,000 = €1,952.50 Project 2 is preferable to Project 1 using the net present-value criterion.

This problem contrasts the implied reinvestment rates of return under the internal rate of return and net present-value methods. Where the economic lives of mutually exclusive projects are unequal, this clash of reinvestment rates may give different conclusions under the two methods. This result occurs because the internal rate of return method assumes that the reinvestment rate is at least equal to the calculated rate of return on the project. The net present-value method assumes that the funds obtainable from competing projects can be reinvested at the rate of the company's required rate of return. Comparisons areas follows
