[Problem 13.3]
The following are exercises on internal rates of return:
a. An investment of $1,000 today will return $2,000 at the end of 10 years. What is its internal
rate of return?
b. An investment of $1,000 will return $500 at the end of each of the next 3 years. What is its
internal rate of return?
c. An investment of $1,000 today will return $900 at the end of 1 year, $500 at the end of 2 years,
and $100 at the end of 3 years. What is its internal rate of return?
d. An investment of $1,000 will return $130 per year forever. What is its internal rate of return?
[ANSWER]
a.
7.18 percent
b.
23.38 percent
c.
33.18 percent
d.
IRR = $130/$1,000 = 13 percent (a perpetuity)

Assume you invest
$5,100
today in an investment that promises to return
$6,928
in exactly
10
years.
a. Use the present-value technique to estimate the IRR on this investment.
b. If a minimum annual return of
9%
is required, would you recommend this investment?
#69
Part 1
a. The IRR of the investment is
enter your response here%.
(Round to the nearest whole percent.)
Part 2
b. If a minimum return of
9%
is required, would you recommend this investment? (Select the best choice below.)
A.
No, because this investment yields less than the minimum required return of
9%.
B.
Yes, because a minimum required return of
9%
does not compensate for an investment that lasts longer than one year.
C.
No, because a minimum required return of
9%
is an arbitrary choice for an investment of this risk level.
D.
Yes, because this investment yields more than the minimum required return of
9%

Part a. write a function F(t)= that describes the value after t years of a $2000 investment that increases by 9% per year
Part b. For your function in part a about find the value of the investment after 10 years
Part C. For the function in part a, solve to find how long it would take to double your original investment. Try to solve the equation without using a graph or table. What problem do you encounter?

Trestle Corporation wants to purchase a new finishing machine. They currently have an old
machine, which is operable for five more years and is expected to have a zero-disposal
value at the end of five years. If the company buys the new machine, the old machine will be
sold now for $95,000 (book value is $75,000). The new machine will cost $635,000 and will
be depreciated for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over its useful life of 5 years. The
new machine will not have a salvage value and will not be sold after its useful life. An
additional cash investment in working capital of $25,000 will be required if the new
machine is purchased. The investment is expected to net $80,000 in before tax cash inflows
during the first year of operation and $235,000 each additional year of use. These cash
flows do not include depreciation and are recognized at the end of each year. The working
capital investment will not be recovered at the end of the asset's life. The company's tax
rate is 32%.

You have the opportunity to make an investment that costs $1.000,000. If you make this investment now, you will receive $250,000 one year from today, $200,000, $150,000 and $ 400,000 two and three years from today, respectively. The appropriate discount rate for thisinvestment is 11 percent. .a. Should you make the investment?b. What is the net present value (NPV) of this opportunity?c. If the discount rate is 10 percent, should you invest? Compute the NPV to support youranswer.
