return (IRR). These are both tools that analyze the present value of the cost of a project as well as the present value of that projects future cash flows. An essential part of these methods is that they both account for discounted cash flow (DCF), meaning that they both reflect the time value of money. When analyzing independent projects with conventional cash flows, both the NPV and IRR will provide projections along the same lines. However when those two conditions are not met, the IRR method will

Assignment #2 Question 1 (a) How much money will Kevin need at retirement? (12 points) EAR = .10 = [1 + (APR / 12)]12 – 1; EAR = .07 = [1 + (APR / 12)]12 – 1; APR = 12[(1.10)1/12 – 1] = .0957 or 9.57% APR = 12[(1.07)1/12 – 1] = .0678 or 6.78% PVA = $20,000{1 – [1 / (1 + .0678/12)12(25)]} / (.0678/12) = $2,885,496.45 PV = $900,000 / [1 + (.0678/12)]300 = $165,824.26 $2,885,496.45 + 165,824.26 = $3,051,320.71 (b) How much will he have to save each month in years 11 through 30?

value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) techniques are discounted cash flow (DCF) evaluation techniques. These are called DCF methods because they explicitly recognize the time value of money. NPV is the present value of the project's expected future cash flows (both inflows and outflows), discounted at the appropriate cost of capital. NPV is a direct measure of the value of the project to shareholders. e. The internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate that equates the present

in the chapter even though it is the subject of Chapter 13. The knowledge is necessary to understand and motivate the capital budgeting models. It relates NPV - IRR procedures to the required rate of return idea, something with which students are already familiar. We explicitly tie NPV and IRR together by emphasizing that the IRR comes from the NPV equation as the interest rate that sets NPV=0. This helps to develop an overall understanding of both procedures.
