EEC believes it can purchase the supplier for $2 million.
In your memo to the VP of Accounting, answer the following questions:
What are the advantageous and disadvantages to each investing method (NPV, IRR, or payback period)?
Which of the methods (NPV, IRR, or payback period) should EEC use, and why?
Would your answer be the same if EEC’s cost of capital were 25%? Why or why not?
Would your answer be the same if EEC did not save $500,000 per year as anticipated?
What would be the least amount of savings that would make this investment attractive to EEC?
