- Paragraph Styles Internal Rate of Return is used to estimate the profit of potential investments. However, this can be used in Firms to determine if an investment is worth pursuing or buying. How might the firm use IRR to make a decision about the possible investment? Internal Rate of Return is used to measure how the Firm will make profits or lose money in the project. Therefore, it makes it easier to determine the profitability and the higher the Internal Rate of Return the higher the profit comes into the company (business).

In a situation such as Acron's, where a one-time cost is followed by a sequence of cash flows, the internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to 0. The idea is that if the discount rate is greater than the IRR, the company will not pursue the project, but if the discount rate is less than the IRR, the project is financially attractive. a. Use Excel's Goal Seek tool to find the IRR for the Acron model. b. Excel also has an IRR function. Look it up in online help to see how it works, and then use it on Acron's model.

Consider the case of Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc.: Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is a small firm, and several of its managers are worried about how soon the firm will be able to recover its initial investment from Project Alpha's expected future cash flows. To answer this question, Green Caterpillar's CFO has asked that you compute the project's payback period using the following expected net cash flows and assuming that the cash flows are received evenly throughout each year. Complete the following table and compute the project's conventional payback period. For full credit, complete the entire table. (Note: Round the conventional payback period to two decimal places. If your answer is negative, be sure to use a minus sign in your answer.)
