1.1 Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return Comparison

By removing the effects of the right-of-ways option, the result of the both projects is similar in nature but the finances are in the favor of Merseyside. This is because of the better result of the net present value, internal rate of return, payback period and expected earnings per share. The Merseyside having more positive value as compare to Rotterdam in term of toady`s value. The Merseyside have 13.9 British pound net present value and Rotterdam have 10.61 British pound net present value. Furthermore the internal rate of return of Merseyside is 26.26 percent, while Rotterdam has 14.7 percent, which is almost 11 times decrease in their percentage. The Merseyside has the payback period less than 50% of the Rotterdam project. The right-of-ways is the option in shorter period the price fluctuated in most superior side or most inferior side.

2.1 Problems of the Crossover and their effects

The problem with the word of crossover effects in which the internal rate of return problems. It shows that the position where zero inflow values with zero present value of capital expenditures. Basically, in the evaluation of the projects needs that point where they measure the high value of return from both proposals. Furthermore, the internal rate of return is not suitable for the calculation of project evaluation because it`s created a problem of the crossover which means that a certain point where the internal rate of return become positive and negative simultaneously. This is the reason for not relying with the techniques of internal rate of return. For the solution of this problem the company should use the method of profitability index (hereafter refer as PI) which giving the position ranking criteria of the project and extract the main essence of the investment opportunity. Moreover, the formula of PI is the sum of all present cash inflows/sum of all present value of cash outflows. These are the main essence of the crossover problems and their reflection on it.............................
