• B) The most obvious difference between a domestic project and a foreign project is that the foreign project will most likely generate cash flows in a foreign currency.
• C) The risk of the foreign project is unlikely to be exactly the same as the risk of domestic projects (or the firm as a whole), because the foreign project contains residual exchange rate risk that the domestic projects often do not contain.
