Question 1
Next Gen Corporation is considering
two investment opportunities. The
company can choose either to invest
in Project K or Project M. The
expected annual free cash flows for
each project as follows:
Year

If the required rate of return is
8%, calculate:
1. calculate the payback period
for each project.
2. calculate the net present value
for each project.
3. based on the two investment
techniques, which project
should be accepted?
J Average Accounting Return
Let's suppose an investment project has the following projected cash inflows and cash outflows.
Estimated revenue
$2,000
4,000
8,000
2,000
Year 1
Year 2,
Year 3
Year 4
Capital cost (initial investment) $40,000. Amortize the capital cost using straight line amortization over 4 years.

The following are two projects a firm is considering:
Project B

Assuming that the relevant cost of capital for both projects is 11%, you should be able to determine
the net present value (NPV) and the internal rate of return (IRR) for both project. Assume now that
the firm has capital rationing, but knows that its true reinvestment rate is 20%, while its cost of
capital is 11 percent. Given this information, determine the modified net present value (MNPV) for
Project B.
