Consider the following two alternatives. The planning period is 8 years for both alternatives. The first alternative requires an initial investment of 200,000 TL and it will produce annual earnings of 53,000 TL for 8 years. The market value will be 0 TL at the end of the planning horizon. The second alternative requires an initial investment of 150,000 TL and it will produce annual earnings of 40,000 TL for 8 years. And the market value at the end of the planning horizon will be 20,000 TL for this alternative. The MARR is 20%. Determine which alternative is better using the incremental IRR method and interpolation to calculate IRR.

Markoff Products is considering two competing projects, but only one will be selected. Project A requires an initial investment of $42,000 and is expected to generate future cash flows of $6,000 for each of the next 50 years. Project B requires an initial investment of $210,000 and will generate $30,000 for each of the next 10 years. If Markoff requires a payback of 8 years or less, which project should it select based on payback periods?
Redbird Company is considering a project with an initial investment of $265,000 in new equipment that will yield annual net cash flows of $45,800 each year over its seven-year life. The companys minimum required rate of return is 8%. What is the internal rate of return? Should Redbird accept the project based on IRR?
Jasmine Manufacturing is considering a project that will require an initial investment of $52,000 and is expected to generate future cash flows of $10,000 for years 1 through 3, $8,000 for years 4 and 5, and $2,000 for years 6 through 10. What is the payback period for this project?
Falkland, Inc., is considering the purchase of a patent that has a cost of $50,000 and an estimated revenue producing life of 4 years. Falkland has a cost of capital of 8%. The patent is expected to generate the following amounts of annual income and cash flows: A. What is the NPV of the investment? B. What happens if the required rate of return increases?
Towson Industries is considering an investment of $256,950 that is expected to generate returns of $90,000 per year for each of the next four years. What Is the Investments internal rate of return?
Tropical Sweets is considering a project that will cost $70 million and will generate expected cash flows of $30 million per year for 3 years. The cost of capital for this type of project is 10%, and the risk-free rate is 6%. After discussions with the marketing department, you learn that there is a 30% chance of high demand with associated future cash flows of $45 million per year. There is also a 40% chance of average demand with cash flows of $30 million per year as well as a 30% chance of low demand with cash flows of only $15 million per year. What is the expected NPV?
Mason, Inc., is considering the purchase of a patent that has a cost of $85000 and an estimated revenue producing lite of 4 years. Mason has a required rate of return that is 12% and a cost of capital of 11%. The patent is expected to generate the following amounts of annual income and cash flows: A. What is the NPV of the investment? B. What happens if the required rate of return increases?
The Rodriguez Company is considering an average-risk investment in a mineral water spring project that has an initial after-tax cost of 170,000. The project will produce 1,000 cases of mineral water per year indefinitely, starting at Year 1. The Year-1 sales price will be 138 per case, and the Year-1 cost per case will be 105. The firm is taxed at a rate of 25%. Both prices and costs are expected to rise after Year 1 at a rate of 6% per year due to inflation. The firm uses only equity, and it has a cost of capital of 15%. Assume that cash flows consist only of after-tax profits because the spring has an indefinite life and will not be depreciated. a. What is the present value of future cash flows? (Hint: The project is a growing perpetuity, so you must use the constant growth formula to find its NPV.) What is the NPV? b. Suppose that the company had forgotten to include future inflation. What would they have incorrectly calculated as the projects NPV?
Buena Vision Clinic is considering an investment that requires an outlay of 600,000 and promises a net cash inflow one year from now of 810,000. Assume the cost of capital is 10 percent. Required: 1. Break the 810,000 future cash inflow into three components: a. The return of the original investment b. The cost of capital c. The profit earned on the investment 2. Now, compute the present value of the profit earned on the investment. 3. Compute the NPV of the investment. Compare this with the present value of the profit computed in Requirement 2. What does this tell you about the meaning of NPV?
In considering a capacity expansion we have two alternatives. The first alternative is expected to cost $1,000,000 and has an expected proi t of $500,000 over the next three years. The second alternative has an expected cost of $800,000 and expected proi t of $450,000 over the next three years. Which alternative should we select, and what is the expected value of the expansion? Assume a 10 percent interest rate.
A new IS project is to be developed with an initial cost of1.5million and a maintenance cost of 100,000 annually (excluding the first year). It is expected that this project will generate 600,000 annually, starting from the first year. a. Show the payback projection for the project in the first five years. b. Calculate the net present value (NPV) in five years for the project using a discount rate of20%. c. Calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) if the target is to break even in 3 years.
You are considering a project with an initial cash outlay of $80,000 and expected free cash flows of $20,000 at the end of each year for 6 years. The required rate of return for this project is 10 percent. What is the payback period of the project? What is the project’s NPV? What is the project’s IRR? If your firm has a required payback of 2 years and passing the IRR and NPV, would you accept this project? Explain.
