Chapter 2, Problem 44P

The IRR is the discount rate r that makes a project have an NPV of $0. You can find IRR in Excel with the built-in IRR function, using the syntax =IRR(range of cash flows). However, it can be tricky. In fact, if the IRR is not near 10%, this function might not find an answer, and you would get an error message. Then you must try the syntax =IRR(range of cash flows, guess), where “guess" is your best guess for the IRR. It is best to try a range of guesses (say, −90% to 100%). Find the IRR of the project described in Problem 34.

34. Consider a project with the following cash flows: year 1, −$400; year 2, $200; year 3, $600; year 4, −$900; year 5, $1000; year 6, $250; year 7, $230. Assume a discount rate of 15% per year.

  1. a. Find the project’s NPV if cash flows occur at the ends of the respective years.
  2. b. Find the project’s NPV if cash flows occur at the beginnings of the respective years.
  3. c. Find the project’s NPV if cash flows occur at the middles of the respective years.

The average completion time (flow time) for the sequence developed using the FCFS rule = 11.75 days (round your response to two decimal places). The percentage utilization for the sequence developed using the FCFS rule = 42.55 % (enter your response as a percentage rounded to two decimal places). b) Using the SPT (shortest processing time) decision rule for sequencing the jobs, the order is (to resolve a tie, use the order in which the jobs were received): An Alabama lumberyard has four jobs on order, as shown in the following table. Today is day 205 on the yard's schedule. In what sequence would the jobs be ranked according to the decision rules on the left: Job Due Date A 212 B 209 C 208 D 210 Duration (days) 6 3 3 8 Sequence 1 Job B 2 3 4 A D The average tardiness (job lateness) for the sequence developed using the SPT rule = 5.00 days (round your response to two decimal places). The average completion time (flow time) for the sequence developed using the SPT rule = 10.25 days…
