The three elements namely incremental cash flow series, LCM, and multiple roots—are considered primary reasons that the ROR method is often applied incorrectly in engineering economy analyses of multiple alternatives Select one: True False
Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that all projects being considered have normal cash flows and are equally risky. O If a project's IRR is equal to its WACC, then under all reasonable conditions, the project's IRR must be negative. O If a project's IRR is equal to its WACC, then under all reasonable conditions the project's NPV must be zero. O There is no necessary relationship between a project's IRR, its WACC, and its NPV. O When evaluating mutually exclusive projects, those projects with relatively long lives will tend to have relatively high NPVS when the cost of capital is relatively high. O If a project's IRR is equal to its WACC, then, under all reasonable conditions, the project's NPV must be negative.
Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the project being considered has normal cash flows, with one outflow followed by a series of inflows. The lower the WACC used to calculate a project's NPV, the lower the calculated NPV will be. If a project's NPV is less than zero, then its IRR must be less than the WACC. If a project's NPV is greater than zero, then its IRR must be less than zero. The NPV of a relatively low-risk project should be found using a relatively high WACC. A project's NPV is found by compounding the cash inflows at the IRR to find the terminal value (TV), then discounting the TV at the WACC. 000o
Modified internal rate of return (MIRR) The IRR evaluation method assumes that cash flows from the project are reinvested at the same rate equal to the IRR. However, in reality the reinvested cash flows may not necessarily generate a return equal to the IRR. Thus, the modified IRR approach makes a more reasonable assumption other than the project’s IRR. Consider the following situation: Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $2,225,000. The project’s expected cash flows are: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $350,000 Year 2 –125,000 Year 3 450,000 Year 4 450,000 Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc.’s WACC is 7%, and the project has the same risk as the firm’s average project. Calculate this project’s modified internal rate of return (MIRR): -12.63% 26.46% 30.64% 29.24% If Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc.’s managers select projects based on the MIRR criterion,…
Sexton Inc. is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR, how much value will be forgone? Note that under certain conditions choosing projects on the basis of the IRR will not cause any value to be lost because the one with the higher IRR will also have the higher NPV, so no value will be lost if the IRR method is used.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the project being considered has normal cash flows, with one outflow followed by a series of inflows. a. If a project's IRR is greater than its WACC, then the MIRR will be greater than the IRR. b. If a project's IRR is greater than its WACC, then the MIRR will be less than the IRR. c. A project's MIRR is always greater than its regular IRR. d. To find a project's MIRR, we compound cash inflows at the IRR and then discount the terminal value back to t = 0 at the WACC. e. A project's MIRR is always less than its regular IRR.
4. Modified internal rate of return (MIRR) The IRR evaluation method assumes that cash flows from the project are reinvested at the same rate equal to the IRR However, in reality the reinvested cash flows may not necessarily generate a return equal to the IRR. Thus, the modified IRR approach makes a more reasonable assumption other than the project's IRR Consider the following situation: Cold Goose Metal Works Inc. is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $600,000. The project's expected cash flows are: Year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Cold Goose Metal Works Inc.'s WACC is 7%, and the project has the same risk as the firm's average project. Calculate this project's modified internal rate of return (MIRR): 17.50% 14.00% Cash Flow $350,000 -100,000 450,000 400,000 19.25%
Which of the following were listed as potential Problems or Issues associated with Using a Rate of Return Approach to justifying single or multiple Mutually Exclusive projects? Note: This is a Multiple Answer question. Please select all of the following options you think are correct? O The ROR calculations are typically more complex than the PW, AW, or FW methods and frequently require the use of trial and error techniques. O You cannot rely on the best Mutually Exclusive project to have the highest ROR. O An incremental approach is required to reliably determine the best project when comparing multiple Mutually Exclusive projects with the ROR approach. O This method assumes that any net positive cash flows are reinvested at the ROR rate. If the ROR rate is substantially larger than MARR, this might not be a realistic assumption. OFor any sequence of Net Cash Flows with more than one sign chance over the life of the project there may be more than one ROR value that satisfies the Rate…
Which of the following statements is true? 1. Neither the net present value method nor the internal rate of return method can be used as a screening tool in capital budgeting decisions. 2. If the internal rate of return is less than the required rate of return for a project, then the net present value of that project is positive. 3. An investment project with a profitability index of 0.04 has an internal rate of return that is less than the discount rate. Multiple Choice Only statement 3 is true. All of the statements are true. None of the statements are true. Only statement 1 is true.
Assume a project has normal cash flows. All else equal, which of the following statements is correct? A project's regular payback increases as the WACC declines. OA project's IRR increases as the WACC declines. A project's NPV declines as the WACC declines. 4 A project's discounted payback increases as the WACC declines. O A project's MIRR is unaffected by changes in the WACC. None of the above statement.
29....When using the NPV method the decision making rationale includes the following (select all that apply): a.If projects are mutually exclusive, accept the project with the highest positive NPV. b.If projects are independent, accept if the project NPV<0. c.If projects are independent, accept if the project NPV>0 d.If the projects are mutually exclusive, accept the project with lowest NPV.
d. Consider the following statement "If an analyst decides to use real options methodology to value a project, estimating a standard Discounted Cash Flow model is useless". Do you agree with this statement? Explain your answer.
