The net present value of a capital budgeting project is ________.
The difference between the present value of the expected future cash flows and the initial cash outflow
The present value of the expected future cash flows divided by the initial cash outflow
The initial cash outflow divided by the present value of the expected future cash flows
A project's internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate

on a bond. The equation for calculating the IRR is:

CFt is the expected cash flow in Period t and cash outflows are treated as negative cash flows. There must be a change in cash flow signs to calculate the IRR. The IRR equation is simply the NPV
equation solved for the particular discount rate that causes NPV to equal zero

The IRR calculation assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the IRR
If the IRR is greater
✔than the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital, then the project should be accepted;
however, if the IRR is less than the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital, then the project should be rejected ✓✓✓. Because of the IRR reinvestment rate assumption, when
mutually exclusive
projects are evaluated the IRR approach can lead to conflicting results from the NPV method. Two basic conditions can lead to conflicts between NPV and IRR:

Discuss the four alternative methods for evaluating capital budgeting projects? What is an advantage and disadvantage of each method?
Furthermore, the accrual accounting rate of return (AARR) divides an accrual accounting measure of average annual income from a project by an accrual accounting measure of its investment. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the accrual accounting rate-of-return (AARR) method for evaluating long-term projects?

Group of answer choices The method in which we calculate a project’s Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is called the Discounted Cash Flow approach. The Payback period can be calculated using the discounted (present) values of future cash inflows. The Payback period calculated using this method is what's called the Discounted Payback Period.

- The net present value (NPV) of a project is positive when the discount rate used is: Group of answer choices equal to the project's internal rate of return (IRR). greater than the project's internal rate of return (IRR). equal to the yield to maturity of the bonds issued to finance the project. Less than the project's internal rate of return (IRR).arrow_forwardFor capital budgeting projects like the one depicted in the prior problem, which of the following statements is CORRECT? (Ch. 11) Group of answer choices The lower the required rate of return, the lower the calculated NPV. If a project’s NPV is less than zero, then its IRR must be less than the required rate of return. Generally speaking, risky projects should have very low required rates of return. A relatively high required rate of return should be used to find the NPV of a relatively low risk project. If a project’s NPV is greater than zero, then its IRR must be less than zero.arrow_forwardWhich 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.arrow_forward

- 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. O 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. A project's IRR is the discount rate that causes the PV of the inflows to equal the project's cost. O If a project's IRR is smaller than the WACC, then its NPV will be positive.
