Ziege Systems is considering the following independent projects
for the coming year:
Project | Required Investment |
Rate of Return |
Risk |
A | $4 million | 12.25% | High |
B | 5 million | 14.75 | High |
C | 3 million | 10.25 | Low |
D | 2 million | 10.25 | Average |
E | 6 million | 13.25 | High |
F | 5 million | 13.25 | Average |
G | 6 million | 8.25 | Low |
H | 3 million | 12.75 | Low |
Ziege's WACC is 10.75%, but it adjusts for risk by adding 2% to
the WACC for high-risk projects and subtracting 2% for low-risk
projects.

Which projects should Ziege accept if it faces no capital
constraints?Project A -Select-AcceptRejectItem 1 Project B -Select-AcceptRejectItem 2 Project C -Select-AcceptRejectItem 3 Project D -Select-AcceptRejectItem 4 Project E -Select-AcceptRejectItem 5 Project F -Select-AcceptRejectItem 6 Project G -Select-AcceptRejectItem 7 Project H -Select-AcceptRejectItem 8 -
If Ziege can only invest a total of $13 million, which projects
should it accept?Project A -Select-AcceptRejectItem 9 Project B -Select-AcceptRejectItem 10 Project C -Select-AcceptRejectItem 11 Project D -Select-AcceptRejectItem 12 Project E -Select-AcceptRejectItem 13 Project F -Select-AcceptRejectItem 14 Project G -Select-AcceptRejectItem 15 Project H -Select-AcceptRejectItem 16 If Ziege can only invest a total of $13 million, what would be
the dollar size of its capital budget? Round your answer to two
decimal places. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an
answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55.$ million

Suppose Ziege can raise additional funds beyond the $13 million,
but each new increment (or partial increment) of $5 million of new
capital will cause the WACC to increase by 1%. Assuming that Ziege
uses the same method of risk adjustment, which projects should it
now accept?Project A -Select-AcceptRejectItem 18 Project B -Select-AcceptRejectItem 19 Project C -Select-AcceptRejectItem 20 Project D -Select-AcceptRejectItem 21 Project E -Select-AcceptRejectItem 22 Project F -Select-AcceptRejectItem 23 Project G -Select-AcceptRejectItem 24 Project H -Select-AcceptRejectItem 25 What would be the dollar size of its capital budget? Round your
answer to two decimal places. Enter your answer in millions. For
example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55.$ million
