3. I need help with multiple choice finance home work question Which of the following statements is incorrect? If a firm's target average accounting return is less than that calculated for a given project then the project should be accepted. If the NPV of a project is positive, it should be accepted. If a project has a payback which is faster than the company requires the project should be accepted. If the cost of capital is greater than the IRR, the project should be accepted. If a project has a profitability index greater than one the project should be accepted.
I think question 3 is not answered clearly. If Project A is rejected due to negative NPV, then all positive NPVs projects should be accepted. The answer is not clear. Please correct me if I am missing something. Question 3) If the firm uses the discounted-payback rule, will it accept any negative NPV projects? Will it turn down any positive NPV projects? How do you know? Your answer is: No Due to Project A's negative NPV, it cannot cover the initial investment within its useful life. Will it turn down any positive NPV projects? It will reject projects with positive NPVs but not those with negative NPVs. If all potential cash flows are taken into account but the project still doesn't reach the designated cutoff point, the NPV can still be positive.
Hi Bartleby Expert,I was hoping for a bit of help on this theoretical question in Corporate Finance, thanks in advance! How can we use the internal rate of return to evaluate whether we should pursue a specific project? Should we pursue a project when the cost of capital is higher than the internal rate of return? Best,Christian
A tire manufacturing firm is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. What is the cost of capital at which the decision to take project L (or S) based on NPV will contradict the decision based on IRR method? Hint: Calculate the crossover rate and explain how the crossover rate would influence your decision to take project L or project S based on NPV vs. IRR? Show your excel work and thoroughly explain your answer. See cash flows below: Year 0 1 2 3 4 Project L: CFL -$2,050 $770 $780 $790 $795 Project S: CFS -$4,300 $1,300 $1,510 $1,520 $1,530
In a few sentences, answer the following question as completely as you can. According to your textbook, “an investment should be accepted if the net present value is positive and rejected if it is negative” (p. 239). What does an NPV of zero mean?If you were a financial decision maker facing a project with NPV of zero (or close to zero) what would you do? Can you think of any other factors that might influence your decision?
What Suppose your organization is deciding which of four projects to bid on. Information on each is in the table below. Assume that all up-front investments are not recovered, so they are shown as negative profits. Draw a diagram and calculate the EMV for each project. Write a few paragraphs explaining which projects you would bid on. Be sure to use the EMV information and your personal risk tolerance to justify your answer
If you could only have one piece of information to help you understand the discount rate for evaluating a project at hand, which of the following would you prefer? The project has different systematic risk than the firm overall. Group of answer choices How the project's expected cash flows are effected by the overall economy The firm's credit rating The firm's cost of equity The firm's WACC
Which of the following is true about the WACC? It’s the appropriate discount rate for all new projects with the same risk level as the existing assets of the firm The optimal capital structure is the one that minimizes the WACC The value of the firm will be maximized when the WACC is minimized Since discount rates and values move in the same direction, minimizing the WACC will minimize the value of the firms cash flows A, B, and C are true

ND Inc. is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. The CEO believes the IRR is the best selection criterion, while the CFO advocates other methods. If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR, how much, if any, value will be forgone, i.e., what's the Profitability index? Discuss your results of these methods and make a recommendation on the projects to the CEO about which one to go for and why?
Which of the following theory is applicable to the following situation? A manager needs to raise funds to finance a new project and prefers to use internal financing. Group of answer choices signaling theory trade off theory MM Proposition pecking order theory
You are reviewing a profitable investment project that has a conventional cash flow pattern but the board of directors requires a smaller investment. If the cash flows for the project, initial outlay, and future after-tax cash flows all half, then the IRR would: Stay the same and the NPV would decrease. Decrease and the NPV would decrease. Stay the same and the NPV would stay the same. Increase and the NPV would increase.
