Discuss the following statement: If a firm has only independent projects, a constant WACC, and projects with normal cash flows, the NPV and IRR methods will always lead to identical capital budgeting decisions. What does this imply about the choice between IRR and NPV? If each of the assumptions were changed (one by one), how would your answer change?
Explain with details
In a few sentences, answer the following question as completely as you can.
The notion that money has time value is based on the existence of a non–zero opportunity rate (i.e., a rate of return at which it is possible to invest). Why is the opportunity rate so important? Construct an example that shows, with an opportunity rate of 0%, that the value of $1 received today will be $1 in the future.
A. MULTIPLE CHOICE: Analyze the following questions and choose among the options which you think
is the correct answer. Write the letter of your choice. (2
1. Which of the following capital budgeting techniques ignores the time value of money?
(a) Payback.
(b) Net present value.
2. Which of the following statements is false?
(a) If the payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback period, accept the project.
(b) If the payback period is greater than the maximum acceptable payback period, reject the project.
(c) If the payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback period, reject the project
(d) Two of the above.

- Hey Can someone help with these questions in the pictures explanation and answer short and great please. Thank uarrow_forwardFor capital budgeting projects like the one depicted in the prior problem, which of the following statements is CORRECT? (Ch. 11) Group of answer choices The lower the required rate of return, the lower the calculated NPV. If a project’s NPV is less than zero, then its IRR must be less than the required rate of return. Generally speaking, risky projects should have very low required rates of return. A relatively high required rate of return should be used to find the NPV of a relatively low risk project. If a project’s NPV is greater than zero, then its IRR must be less than zero.arrow_forwardSECTION B Answer all the questions below:. B1) Do you think capital budgeting is important? Justify?

- 2.When comparing two projects with different lives, why do you compute an annuity with an equivalent present value (PV) to the net present value (NPV)? A. so that you can see which project has the greatest net present value (NPV) B. to reduce the danger that changes in the estimate of the discount rate will lead to choosing the project with a shorter timeframe C. to ensure that cash flows from the project with a longer life that occur after the project with the shorter life has ended are considered D. so that the projects can be compared on their cost or value created per yeararrow_forwardThanks you for the previous answer. I will just research about the terms. Can you also please help me answer this 2 questions. No need for explanation. Thank youarrow_forward1. Basic NPV methods tell us that the value of a project today is NPV0. Time value of money issues also lead us to believe that if we choose not to do the project that it will be worth NPV1 one period from now, such that NPV0 > NPV1. Why then do we see some firms choosing to defer taking on a project. Be complete and thorough in your answer. 2.

He feels that if a project is acceptable at one rate of return, it will be acceptable at all rates of return. To explain why his thinking is incorrect, you are creating an example to illustrate your point. The cash flows you are using are as follows: time zero is -$71,000, years 1 through 4 are $17,500 each, and years 5 and 6 are $22,500 each. The net present value at a discount rate of 12 percent is _____ as compared to _____ at 17 percent.arrow_forwardYonan Inc. is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below.
