Question 5: Find the net present value, interpret whether the NPV suggests you should accept or reject the project, find the payback period, find the discounted payback period, find the profitability index, interpret whether the profitability index suggests you should accept or reject the project, find the internal rate of return, explain whether the internal rate of return can repay the cost of borrowing money to conduct the project, find the modified internal rate of return, and explain with the modified internal rate of return can repay the cost of borrowing money to conduct the project. All for the following situation:
The initial capital outlay is $175,000, the first-year annual operating cash flow is projected to be 20,000 but should grow by 5% per year during each of the project's 30 years, the after-tax-salvage cash flow is guessed to be $500,000, the required rate of return on this project is 15.50% and the company weighted average cost of capital is 12.50%.
3) could you use the Figure below that shows the net present value profile of two projects Y and W to answer the following questions:
What is the internal rate of return on project Y?
Determine the “approximate” discount rate at which you would be indifferent between the two projects
Find the “approximate” net present value of project W when the discount rate is 4%.

The relationship between the payback method and the internal rate of return is that:
Group of answer choices
The discounted payback period is exactly the same as the IRR.
The payback period is the present value factor for the IRR.
A payback period of less than one-half of the life of a project will yield an IRR lower than the target rate.
A project whose payback period does not meet the company’s cut-off rate for payback will not meet the company’s criterion for IRR.
