Concept explainers
IRR of a project is calculated using a financial calculator. All financial calculators have an inbuild cash flow register, Cash flows in accordance of the timeline and with proper +/- signs should be input, then press the key labelled “IRR”. It will return the internal rate of return of the project.
A project has initial cost of $74,000 and is expected to generate $16,500 for the next six years.

- If a copy center is considering the purchase of a new copy machine with an initial investment cost of $150,000 and the center expects an annual net cash flow of $20,000 per year, what is the payback period?arrow_forwardAverage rate of return Determine the average rate of return for a project that is estimated to yield total income of 936,000 over eight years, has a cost of 1,200,000, and has a 100,000 residual value.arrow_forwardIf a project costs $100,000 and is expected to return $25,000 annually, how long does it take to recover the initial investment? What would be the discounted payback period at i=15%? Assume that the cash flows occur continuously throughout the year.arrow_forward
- Compute the traditional payback period (PB) and the discounted payback period (DPB) for a project that costs $329,000 if it is expected to generate $94,000 per year for five years? The firm’s required rate of return is 12.5 percent? Should the project be purchased?arrow_forwardWhat is the profitability index of a project that costs $87 and returns $42 annually for 8 years if you use an opportunity cost of capital (discount rate) of 13%?arrow_forwardA project is projected to have the following net income: Year 1 = $80,000; Year 2 = $40,000; Year 3 = –$30,000. The same project has an initial investment of $300,000 and will lose value at a rate of $100,000 per year. The numerator in the average accounting return method will be?arrow_forward
- You are evaluating a project that costs $75,000 today. The project has an inflow of $ 155,000 in one year and an outflow of $65,000 in two years. What are the IRRs for the project? What discount rate results in the maximum NPV for this project? How can you determine that this is the maximum NPV?arrow_forwardA project has a rate of return of 23%. What is the future value of the project if the investment today is $400?arrow_forwardCalculate the internal rate of return for a project that requires $100,000 initial investment and provides $7,000 each year forever.arrow_forward
- If a project costs $50,000 and is expected to return $10,000 annually, how long does it take to recover the initial investment? What would be the discounted payback period at i=18%? Assume that the cash flows occur continuously throughout the year.arrow_forwardIf a project costs $120,000 and is expected toreturn $40,000 annually, how long does it take torecover the initial investment? What would be thediscounted payback period at i = 15%?arrow_forwardA project whose machinery and installation cost $15,000, promises a net stream of savings of $3,000 per year and has an expected life of 6 years. The companies required rate of return is 5%. What is the NPV of the project. What is the internal rate of return?arrow_forward
