Investment Opportunity Comparison
An investor is presented with two mutually exclusive one-year project opportunities:
- Project Alpha: Requires an initial investment of $50,000 and is projected to generate a total revenue of $60,000.
- Project Beta: Requires an initial investment of $5,000 and is projected to generate a total revenue of $7,000.
Evaluate both projects by calculating their absolute profit and rate of return. Based on your analysis, which project would you recommend to the investor? Justify your recommendation, explaining the circumstances under which one project might be preferable to the other.
