What refers to the interest rate at which the present work of the cash flow on a project is zero of
the interest earned by an investment?
Select one:
a. Return of investment
b. Yield
c. Rate of return
d. Economic return
1] Payback and Internal Rate of Return: A project has perpetual cash flows of C per period, a cost of I, and a required return of r. What is the relationship between the project’s payback and its IRR? What implications does your answer have for long-lived projects with relatively constant cash flows?
2] WHAT ARE THE PROBLEMS WITH IRR APPROACH TO CAPITAL BUDGETING?
3] COMPARE IRR WITH MIRR METHOD.
Mathematically, we can determine the rate of return for a given project’s cash flow series by identifying an interest rate that equates the present worth of its cash flows to zero.

- How can the money released from a project be reinvested to yield a rate of return equal to that received from the project?arrow_forwardIf a project has a positive net present value, then which of the following statements are correct? I. The present value of all cash inflows must equal the costs of the project. The IRR is equal to the required rate of return. II. A increase in the project's initial cost will cause the project to have a higher positive NPV. III. Any delay in receiving the projected cash inflows will cause the project to have a higher positive NPV. IV. IRR must equal zero. Only II Only III All None of themarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true about the internal rate of return? a. It is the interest rate that sets a project's net present value at zero. b. It is the minimal acceptable interest rate on an investment. c. It is the difference between the present value of the cash inflows and outflows associated with a project. d. It is the difference between the present value of a cash outflow and the depreciation associated with an asset.arrow_forward
- The internal rate of return (IRR) on a project is the average annual rate of return provided by investing in the project. A. Explain this thoroughly. B. Give some example if you have any idea.arrow_forwardWhich 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. O A project's regular IRR is found by compounding the initial cost at the WACC to find the terminal value (TV), then discounting the TV at the WACC. A project's IRR is the discount rate that causes the PV of the inflows to equal the project's cost. O If a project's IRR is smaller than the WACC, then its NPV will be positive. O A project's regular IRR is found by compounding the cash inflows at the WACC to find the present value (PV), then discounting the TV to find the IRR.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true regarding the payback period? Multiple Choice It measures the length of time that it takes for a project to recover its initial cost from the discounted net cash inflows that it genera It measures the length of time that it takes for a project to recover its initial cost from the net cash inflows that it generates. It measures the length of time that it takes for a project to recover its initial cost from the incremental net operating income that It measures the length of time that it takes for a project to recover its initial cost from the discounted incremental net operating it generates.arrow_forward
- A project's IRR: A) All of these answers are correct. B is the average rate of return necessary to pay back the project's capital providers. C is equal to the discounted cash flows divided by the number of cash flows if the cash flows are a perpetuity. D will change with the cost of capital.arrow_forwardYou have determined the profitability of a planned project by finding the present value of all the cash flows from that project. Which of the following would cause the project to look more appealing in terms of the present value of those cash flows? A. The discount rate increases. B. The cash flows are extended over a longer period of time, but the total amount of the cash flows remains the same. C. The discount rate decreases. D. Answers B and C above. E. Answers A and B above.arrow_forwardPayback period is the time in which the initial cost of an investment is expected to be recovered through the cash inflows generated by the investment. Briefly discuss the pros and cons of payback period?arrow_forward
- What are the reinvestment rate assumptions for the NPV and the IRR? A.IRR: Risk Free Rate NPV: WACC B.IRR: The IRR itself NPV: WACC C.The cash flows generated by the project are not assumed to be reinvested. So they will not earn a rate of return. D.IRR: Risk free rate NPV: Risk free Rate E. IRR:WACC NPV: WACCarrow_forwardInternal rate of return For the project shown in the following table, calculate the internal rate of return (IRR). Then indicate, for the project, the maximum cost of capital that the firm could have and still find the IRR acceptable.arrow_forwardIs it worth the effort to estimate daily project cash flows? Would doing so be helpful in the investment analysis? How would the results be negatively or positively affected?arrow_forward
