following a. The IRR is the discount rate that equates the present value of a project's expected cash inflows with its net present value. b. The IRR is the discount rate that makes the net present value of a project equal to zero. c. The IRR is the maximum discount rate that will give a non-negative net present value. d. Consider an investment opportunity that costs P10,000 and promises to pay a single lump sum of P13,000 three years from now. In this situation, invested capital will increase over the life of the investment.

True or False Assume that the riskfree rate of return is 5% p.a. and that an investment project costs $150,000 and is expected to generate a risky net cash flow next year of $180,000. The project is acceptable as its internal rate of return exceeds the riskfree rate of return.
Which one of the following statements is correct concerning the payback rule? a. The payback period is computed using the present value of each of the cash flows. b. The rule says that you should accept a project if the payback period is greater than 1.0. c. The rule is biased in favour of long-term projects. d. The rule is flawed because it ignores all cash flows after some arbitrary point in time.
Which one of the following statements is correct? If the initial cost of a project is increased, the net present value of that project will also increase. The net present value is positive when the required return exceeds the internal rate of return. If the internal rate of return equals the required return, the net present value will equal zero. Net present value is equal to an investment's cash inflows discounted to today's dollars.
Which of the following statements is incorrect regarding project appraisal techniques? At IRR, the NPV of a project is equal to 0 If the IRR of a project is 8%, its NPV calculated using a discount rate greater than 8%, will be less than 0 If the NPV of a project is greater than 0, then its PI will exceed 1. If the PI of a project equals 0, then the project's initial cash outflow equals the PV of its cash inflows

48. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the project being considered has normal cash flows, with one outflow followed by a series of inflows. a. A project's regular IRR is found by compounding the cash inflows at the WACC to find the present value (PV), then discounting the TV to find the IRR. b. If a project's IRR is smaller than the WACC, then its NPV will be positive. c. If a project's IRR is positive, then its NPV must also be positive. d. A project's IRR is the discount rate that causes the PV of the inflows to equal the project's cost. e. A project's regular IRR is found by compounding the initial cost at the WACC to find the terminal value (TV), then discounting the TV at the WACC.
Dennis wants to determine if the discount rate really makes any difference in the net present value of a project. He feels that if a project is acceptable at one rate of return, it will be acceptable at all rates of return. To explain why his thinking is incorrect, you are creating an example to illustrate your point. The cash flows you are using are as follows: time zero is -$71,000, years 1 through 4 are $17,500 each, and years 5 and 6 are $22,500 each. The net present value at a discount rate of 12 percent is _____ as compared to _____ at 17 percent.

5. Froogle Enterprises is evaluating an unusual investment project. What makes the project unusual is the stream of cash inflows and outflows shown in the following table: a. Calculate the investment’s net present value at each of the following discount rates: 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%. b. What does your answer to part b tell you about this project’s IRR? c. Should Froogle invest in this project if its cost of capital is 5%? What if the cost of capital is 15%? d. In general, when faced with a project like this, how should a firm decide whether to invest in the project or reject it?
An investment has an installed cost of $787,350. The cash flows over the four-year life of the investment are projected to be $312,615, $304,172, $245,367, and $229,431. a. If the discount rate is zero, what is the NPV? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) b. If the discount rate is infinite, what is the NPV? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations

45. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The definition of "normal" cash flows is that the cash flow stream has one or more negative cash flows followed by a stream of positive cash flows and then one negative cash flow at the end of the project's life. b. If a project has "normal" cash flows, then it will have exactly two real IRRs. c. If a project has "normal" cash flows, then it can have only one real IRR, whereas a project with "nonnormal" cash flows might have more than one real IRR. d. If a project has "normal" cash flows, then its IRR must be positive. e. If a project has "normal" cash flows, then its MIRR must be positive.
