Mario Kat, Inc plans a new project. Calculate its IRR. Assume that its initial after tax cost is $5,000,000 and it is expected to provide after-tax operating cash flows of ($1,800,000) in year 1, $2,900,000 in year 2, $2,700,000 in year 3 and $2,300,000 in year 4?
Answer each independent question, (a) through (e), below.
a. Project B costs $10,000 and will generate after-tax cash inflows of $900 in year 1, $2,400 in year 2, $4,300 in year 3, $3,400 in year 4, and $4,300 in year 5. What is the payback period (in years) for this investment assuming that the cash inflows occur evenly throughout the year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Project C costs $10,000 and will generate net cash inflows of $4,750 before taxes for 5 years. The firm uses straight-line depreciation with no salvage value and is subject to a 20% tax rate. What is the payback period under the assumption that all cash inflows occur evenly throughout the year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
