            Coefficient of Variation    1.90    1.11
            Prob(NPV <= 0)    35%    15%
        Answer 1    Since, Expected NPV of Both Project is same, which project to be decided, can be chosen
        Answer 2    Project A has a higher Standard Deviation and Variance as compared to Project B, Hence, the investment in the Project A would be risker.
        Answer 3    Probability of Negative return in Project B is lower than Project, Hence Project A is more advisable to select. Hence, Yes the decision has changed.
Cece Equestrian Tours is evaluating 2 mutually exclusive projects. The probabilities of the different project returns are shown below.
1. Calculate the expected NPV. Which project is better?
2. Calculate the variance and standard deviation. Now which project is better?
3. Calculate the coefficient of variation and the probability of negative return. Does this change your...
