Questão
For stand-alone projects, the PI will always give the same accept/reject decision as NPV.

Responda
  • True

Questão 17

Questão
Assuming that the total cash flows are equal, the NPV of a project whose cash flows accrue relatively rapidly is more sensitive to changes in the discount rate than is the NPV of a project whose cash flows come in more slowly.
