will change both the NPV and the IRR. b) To find the MIRR, we first compound cash flows at the regular IRR to find the TV, and then we discount the TV at the WACC to find the PV. c) The NPV and IRR methods both assume that cash flows can be reinvested at the WACC. However, the MIRR method assumes reinvestment at the MIRR itself. d) If two projects have the same cost, and if their NPV profiles cross in the upper right quadrant, then the project with the higher IRR probably has more of its cash flows

provided below. * NPV: Net present value is the difference between the present value of the cash inflows and the cash outflows. If the NPV is positive a project should be accepted and if it is negative the project should be rejected. * IRR: Internal rate of return is the discount rate that results in a zero NPV for a project. * PI: Profitability index is equal to the present value of an investments future cash flows divided by its initial cost. A PI greater than one indicates

budgeting is that if a project's NPV exceeds its IRR, then the project should be accepted. [A] True [B] False [4] The internal rate of return is that discount rate that equates the present value of the cash outflows (or costs) with the present value of the cash inflows. [A] True [B] False [5] Other things held constant, an increase in the cost of capital will result in a decrease in a project's IRR. [A] True [B] False [6] A project’s IRR is

cash flow. NPV=Initial Cost+CF11+k+CF2(1+k)2+…+CFn(1+k)n The NPV is the total value of the project, net of all costs. If NPV > 0, we accept the project, otherwise, if NPV < 0, we should not accept the project. The Internal Rate of Return IRR is the discount rate when the NPV is equal to Zero. It can be viewed as the financial break-even point where all cash inflows at present

For MAR and the NYSE index, determine the monthly average return on the share price, the related variance and standard deviation. What does the standard deviation measure? Compare the standard deviation and monthly average returns of the NYSE index and MAR. What do your calculations suggest about the relationship between risk and return? (12 marks) Definition of 'Standard Deviation' A measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. The more spread apart the data, the higher

Investment A a) Payback period = 5 years b) NPV = 40000 x PVIFA (12%,10) – 200 000 = 26000 c) IRR (r ) can be obtained by solving the equation: 40000 x PVIFA (r, 10) = 200000 i.e., PVIFA (r, 10) = 5.000 From the PVIFA tables we find that PVIFA (15%,10) = 5.019 PVIFA (16%,10) = 4.883 Linear interporation in this range
