First project

Explanation:

The 2 options/ project been considered:

1. Buying 10% of shares in a publicly traded american company that owns five power generation units in Pakistan

2. To be partner with equal share with one private company in building a new power generation unit in Pakistan

The first option/project would have a higher required return because:

-  This company is already settled in the country having five power generation units in Pakistan. All these units are running and making profit.

-  Investment Option 2 is high riskier as we do not know the details of the new company and there are so many unforeseen circumstances surrounding establishing such project in the company. It will also take time to establish in order to start make it profitable.
