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_forward

B5) According to you which technique is better and why?arrow_forwardExplain how inflation impacts capital budgeting analysis. Why do we care? How is NPV impacted if you neglect to adjust for inflation in the cash flows when you use a discount rate based upon market (nominal) rates. Does it make the project look better or worse? Explain fully.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_forward

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 Valuearrow_forward
