Reconsider Example 11.6, where the expected cash flows for the Capstone project arePeriod 0 1 2 3 4 5Cash Flow -$55,000 $17,094 $20,439 $20,069 $20,212 $29,660Suppose that Capstone consider the MicroCHP project to be just one of their normal risky projects. Then the appropriate discount rate to use is 15%. However, Capstone considers the MicroCHP project to be much riskier than normal projects, so it believes an additional risk premium of 6.93% should be added. If management has decided to use a risk-adjusted discount rate of 21.93% to compensate for the uncertainty of the cash flows, is this project acceptable?
Q15. Which of the following is NOT potentially problematic for Internal Rate of Return (IRR)?
Group of answer choices
1. IRR cannot cope with multiple future cash flows
2. It is assumed that intermediate cash flow can be reinvested at the same rate as the project IRR
3. IRR may produce nonsense answers when there is unconventional cash flow with more than one change of sign'.
4. When comparing 2 projects with very different sensitivity to the assumed discount rate, IRR may conflict with Net Present Value
28...Some of the weaknesses of the Discounted Payback Period method of Capital Budgeting Analysis are (select all that apply):
a.Ignores the time value of money (TVM).
b.Ignores CFs occuring after the payback period.
c.There is no relationship between a given payback and investor wealth maximization.
d.It is easy to calculate and understand.

The IRR is a more appropriate discount rate. b.It provides a direct measure of the value that the project adds to shareholder wealth and properly considers the Time Value of Money. c.It can not handle non-normal cashflow streams. d.NPV isn't the best tool to use for capital budgeting.arrow_forwardMf2.

In the context of capital budgeting, what is an opportunity cost?2. Given the choice, would a firm prefer to use MACRS depreciation or straight-line depreciation? Why?3. In our capital budgeting examples, we assumed that a firm would recover all of the working capital it invested in a project. Is this a reasonable assumption? When might it not be valid?4. Suppose a financial manager is quoted as saying, “Our firm uses the stand-alone principle. Because we treat projects like minifirms in our evaluation process, we include financing costs because they are relevant at the firm level.” Critically evaluate this statement.arrow_forward

The company cost of capital may be an inappropriate discount rate for a capital budgeting proposal if: A) it calculates a negative NPV for the proposal. B) the proposal has a different degree of risk. C) the company has unique risk. D) the company expects to earn more than the risk-free rate.arrow_forwardQuestion7 In discounted cash flow analysis, which of the following is a bad decision rule for a normal investment project?

- 11. Which one of the following statements is most CORRECT? a. Real options change the risk, but not the size, of projects' expected NPVs. b. Very few projects have real options. They are theoretically interesting but of little practical importance. c. Real options are more valuable when there is very little uncertainty about the true values of future sales and costs. d. Real options change the size, but not the risk, of projects' expected NPVs. e. Real options can reduce the cost of capital that should be used to discount a project's expected cash flows.arrow_forwardHi, please complete the left question sent earlier.

Time value of money issues also lead us to believe that if we choose not to do the project that it will be worth NPV1 one period from now, such that NPV0 > NPV1. Why then do we see some firms choosing to defer taking on a project?arrow_forward
