Chapter 9, Problem 15CRCT
a. Calculate the
b. Calculate the IRR of the project using the single future value calculated in the previous step and the initial outlay. It is easy to verify that you will get the same IRR as in your original calculation only if you use the IRR as the reinvestment rate in the previous step.

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
H5.
Discuss the following statement: If a firm has only independent projects, a constant WACC, and projects with normal cash flows, the NPV and IRR methods will always lead to identical capital budgeting decisions. What does this imply about the choice between IRR and NPV? If each of the assumptions were changed (one by one), how would your answer change?
Explain with details
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?

- 4. Modified internal rate of return (MIRR) The IRR evaluation method assumes that cash flows from the project are reinvested at the same rate equal to the IRR. However, in reality the reinvested cash flows may not necessarily generate a return equal to the IRR. Thus, the modified IRR approach makes a more reasonable assumption other than the project’s IRR. Consider the following situation: Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $500,000. The project’s expected cash flows are: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $300,000 Year 2 –100,000 Year 3 450,000 Year 4 450,000 Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc.’s WACC is 9%, and the project has the same risk as the firm’s average project.
