WhyA) Project B should be chosen because it has higher NPV. The NPV criterion is preferred because it makes the most acceptable reinvestment assumption from the wealth-maximizing firmB) Project A should be chosen because it has a lower payback period. The payback period is preferred because it can be easily computed.C) Neither project A nor B should be chosen because ranking conflict exists among different decision criteria. Different decision criteria should yield the same resultD) Project A should be chosen because it has higher IRR. The IRR criterion is preferred because it makes the most acceptable reinvestment assumption for the wealth- maximizing fir.
