Which project has no rate of return?
Your firm is contemplating the purchase of a new $1,683,500 computer-based order
entry system. The system will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its 5-year life. It
will be worth $163,800 at the end of that time. You will be able to reduce working capital
by $227,500 (this is a one-time reduction). The tax rate is 23 percent and your required
return on the project is 17 percent and your pretax cost savings are $636,550 per year.
a. What is the NPV of this project?

- Which of the following is TRUE about NPV? LO3 NPV is the ratio of a project's present value to the amount of resources consumed in generating it. O NPV is the rate at which IRR equals $0. O NPV and IRR are equally reliable investment decision rules when evaluating mutually exclusive projects. O NPV is the difference between the present value of the benefits and the present value of the costs of a project.arrow_forwardWill you accept or reject the project? OAccept ○ Reject At what level of pretax cost savings would you be indifferent between accepting the project and not accepting it? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Cost savingsarrow_forwardProject A (longer) has higher annualized net benefits than Project B (shorter). !) Does this mean Project A has a higher NPV? 2) Is it always more efficient to choose a project with a higher ANB?arrow_forward
- Why is an incremental analysis necessary when conducting a rate of return analysis for cost alternatives?arrow_forward10.

Group of answer choices True Falsearrow_forwardThe equivalent annual cost for the project is incorrect. What's the correct answer?arrow_forward
- If a particular project has multiples rates of return (i.e., multiple values of IRR), it means that the project is economically more attractive as compared with a project with a single IRR. Group of answer choices True Falsearrow_forwardWhich project below would you consider acceptable? One whose IRR is greater than the MARR One whose MARR is greater than the IRR O One whose RIC is less than the MARR One whose MARR is greater than the MIRRarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true? Multiple Cholce There Is no correlation between net present value and Internal rate of return. A project with a positive net present value will have a discount rate that Is greater than the Internal rate of return. None of the statements are true Glven several projects with positive net present values, the company should choose the project with the hlghest net present value. A project with a positive net present value will have a discount rate that Is less than the Internal rate of return.arrow_forward
