What are the Flaws in Project Ranking by IRR?
A project has an initial cost of $65,000, expected net cash inflows of $11,000 per year for 12 years, and a cost of capital of 11%. What is the project's MIRR? (Hint: Begin by constructing a time line.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.

He summarized the relevant data provided for these projects as; for project A, the initial investment is -200 , annual return is 22 and the salvage value is 200. For project B, the initial investment is -4000, salvage value is 2600 and the annual return is 620. For project C, the initial investment is -5450, annual retum is 740 and salvage value is 4300.

Since the long-term growth potential of the town is excellent, it is believed that the company could average 85% full occupancy for the complex each year. If the following financial data are reasonably accurate estimates, determine the minimum monthly rent that should be charged if a 15% rate of return is desired: Land investment cost = P1 000 000 Building investment cost = P15 000 000 Annual upkeep cost = P150 000 Property taxes and insurance = 5% of total initial investment Study period = 25 years Salvage value = only land cost can be recovered in full Insert your answer to 2 decimal places with no units. . . .arrow_forward
- Nowadays it is very important to reduce one's carbon "footprint" (how much carbon we produce in our daily lifestyles). Minimizing the use of fossil fuels and instead resorting to renewable sources of energy (e.g., solar energy) are vital to a "sustainable" lifestyle and a lower carbon footprint. Let's consider solar panels that prewarm the water fed to a conventional home water heater. The solar panels have an installed cost of $3000 and they reduce the homeowner's energy bill by $30 per month. The residual value of the solar panels is negligible at the end of their 10-year life.

- The consultancy Imagination Inc. is working with its manufacturing client Parts-R-Us to improve their on-time performance. The firm can earn a bonus of up to $1,000,000 based on how much the on-time performance actually improves. It's current (baseline) on-time performance is 90%. The company typically completes approximately 1,000 orders per month, with approximately 100 orders delayed. The bonus payment is prorated according to the following criteria: · The on-time performance improvement is calculated based on a reduction in late events or an improvement in on-time performance. · No bonus is earned for the first 25% reduction in late events, say from 100 to 75. Maximum bonus is earned once Parts-R-Us achieves 95% on-time performance. Please answer the following: Write down a formula to determine the total bonus amount to be received Using your formula, show how much bonus would be paid if Parts-R-Us achieves 94% on-time performance.arrow_forwardA project your firm is considering for implementation has these estimated costs and revenues: an investment cost of $58,548, maintenance costs that start at $5,000 at end-of-year (FOY) one and increase by $1,000 for each of the next four years, and then remain constant for the following five years; savings of $20,007 per year (EOY 1-10); and finally a resale value of $33,311 at EOY 10.
