Assume that your firm wants to choose between two project options: Project A: Br. 500,000 invested today will yield an expected income stream of Br150, 000 per year for 5 years, starting in Year 1.
Project B: an initial investment of Br 400,000 is expected to produce this revenue stream: Year 1 = 0, Year 2 = Br 50,000, Year 3 = Br 200,000, Year 4 = Br300, 000, and Year 5 = Br200, 000. Assume that a required rate of return for your company is 10% and that inflation is expected to remain steady at 3% for the life of the project. Which is the better investment? Why?

Project B should be the better investment

Based on the above calculations, the project B contains high net present value as compared with the project A so Project B should be the better investment

answer; i believe that the correct answer is culture based resources;

answer:

d. because dr. laguardia selected a widely used measure, his study generalizes to has strong external validity. external validity has limited external validity. other applications of this measure.

the widely used measure that he applied to his experiment was the benton facial recognition test. it employed on to football players and as result, only players who suffered brain concussions did not pas this test. and although it has an external validity, it is limited because it isn't general to apply to other population.
