Consider a project with the following cash flows: Year 0 Year 1 -1000 1000 Year 2 1000 Year 3 -800 Project D The cash flows are negative in the last period because of decommissioning costs. i.) Write an equation that a good calculator or computer might be able to solve to calculate the IRR (but do not solve it). ii.) Two of your associates have gotten into a fist-fight over the IRR of the project in (i). One claims it is 29.519270%, way above the relevant cost of capital, so that the company should take the project. The other claims it is -34.793795%, way below the relevant cost of capital, so the company should reject the project. What happens when you plug these values into your equation from (i)? Is one of the associates right? What does this imply about the IRR rule?

A project does not necessarily have a unique IRR.(Refer to the previous problem for more informationon IRR.) Show that a project with the following cashflows has two IRRs: year 1, 2$20; year 2, $82; year3, 2$60; year 4, $2. (Note: It can be shown that ifthe cash flow of a project changes sign only once, theproject is guaranteed to have a unique IRR.)
