Consider the following two alternatives. The planning period is 8 years for both alternatives. The first alternative requires an initial investment of 200,000 TL and it will produce annual earnings of 53,000 TL for 8 years. The market value will be 0 TL at the end of the planning horizon. The second alternative requires an initial investment of 150,000 TL and it will produce annual earnings of 40,000 TL for 8 years. And the market value at the end of the planning horizon will be 20,000 TL for this alternative. The MARR is 20%. Determine which alternative is better using the incremental IRR method and interpolation to calculate IRR.

Fargo Inc. is considering a project that will require an initial investment of $1.5 million. The project will provide incremental cash inflows of $600,000 for the next five years. If the required return on the project is 15%, what is its discounted payback? If the company’s investment cutoff threshold is three years, should the project be given the go-ahead? Select one: a. 3 years and 4.55 months; yes b. 3 years and 4.55 months; no c. 4 years and 11.55 months; yes d. 4 years and 11.55 months; no e. 5 years and 1 month; no
You are deciding between two mutually exclusive investment opportunities. Both require the same initial investment of $10 million. Investment A will generate $2 million per year (starting at the end of the first year) in perpetuity. Investment B will generate $1.5 million at the end of the first year and its revenues will grow at 2% per year for every year after that. a. Which investment has the higher IRR? b. Which investment has the higher NPV when the cost of capital is 7%? c. In this case, when does picking the higher IRR give the correct answer as to which investment is the better opportunity?
A project that costs $50 million is expected to generate $20 million per year over the next 4 years. The project's cost of capital is 6%. a) Find the payback period (PP).b) Find the net present value (NPV).c) Find the internal rate of return (IRR).d) Find the modified internal rate of return (MIRR).
You are deciding between two mutually exclusive investment opportunities. Both require the same initial investment of $10 million. Investment A will generate $2 million per year (starting at the end of the first year) in perpetuity. Investment B will generate $1.5 million at the end of the first year and its revenues will grow at 2% per year for every year after that. (1) Which investment has the higher IRR? (2) Which investment has the higher NPV when the cost of capital is 7%? (3) In this case, for what values of the cost of capital does picking the higher IRR give the correct answer as to which investment is the best opportunity?
Consider the six indivisible investment alternatives shown below. The planning horizon is 8 years. The MARR is 15%. $60,000 is available for investment. a. Which investments should be made in order to maximize present worth? b. Solve part a when investments N and P are mutually exclusive and R is contingent on Q.
You are deciding between two mutually exclusive investment opportunities. Both require the same initial investment of $10 million. Investment A will generate $2.1 million per year (starting at the end of the first year) in perpetuity. Investment B will generate $1.7 million at the end of the first year, and its revenues will grow at 2.7% per year for every year after that. Use the incremental IRR rule to correctly choose between investments A and B when the cost of capital is 7.9%. At what cost of capital would your decision change? The incremental IRR is %. (Round to two decimal places.)
Assume that it costs $1000 to start a project. If the project will give $400 profit in the first year, $500 in the second year and $300 in the third year, find the pay back period. Now assume that the interest rate is 10%, find the net present value (NPV) and the profitable index (PI) for this project.
a. Determine the expected internal rate of return of this project for seven years, using the present value of an annuity of $1 table above. If required, round youP Pinal answer to the nearest whole percent. b. What are some uncertainties that could reduce the internal rate of return of this project?
A project requires an initial investment of $10,000 and returns benefits of $3000 at the end of every fifth year thereafter. If the minimum attractive rate of return (MARR) is 5%, calculate the equivalent uniform annual worth.
A project that will last for 9 years is expected to have equal annual cash flows of $101,800. If the required return is 8.9 percent, what maximum initial investment would make the project acceptable?
