Dear John,
Could you please help me on this questions
Using the same company information for A Co (divisible projects) the additional factor to be considered is that projects C and E are mutually exclusive.
The information is reproduced below.
A company has $100,000 available for investment and has identified the following 5 investments in which to invest. All investments must be started now (Yr 0).

Determine the optimal project selection
Solution:
Project C mix 60%D => NPV = 41
Project E mix 50% D => NPV = 41.5
What I do not understand why the solution did not take into account of : Project F?

Mutually exclusive means that you can do only one of C or E, but you can’t do both.
As far as project F is concerned, I can’t help you without seeing the whole question, and you haven’t said which question you are referring to!
