A capital budgeting technique that converts a project's cash flows using a more consistent reinvestment rate prior to applying the Internal Rate of Return, IRR, decision rule.

Use the NPV decision rule to evaluate this project; should it be accepted or rejected?

Use the PI decision rule to evaluate these projects; which one(s) should be accepted or rejected?

A financial asset will pay you $10,000 at the end of 10 years if you pay premiums of $175 per year at the end of each year for 10 years. What is the IRR of this financial asset?

Explain the differing reinvestment rate assumptions of NPV and IRR.

Suppose your firm is considering investing in a project with the cash flows shown below, that the required rate of return on projects of this risk class is 10 percent, and that the maximum allowable payback and discounted payback statistics for the project are 3 and 3.5 years, respectively. Use the payback decision to evaluate this project; should it be accepted or rejected?

For a project with normal cash flows, what would you expect the relationship to be between the MIRR and the IRR?

Which of the following statements is correct?

Compute the Discounted Payback statistic for Project Y and recommend whether the firm should accept or reject the project with the cash flows shown below if the appropriate cost of capital is 12 percent and the maximum allowable discounted payback is 3 years.

Use the MIRR decision rule to evaluate these projects; which one(s) should be accepted or rejected?

Compute the Payback statistic for Project X and recommend whether the firm should accept or reject the project with the cash flows shown below if the appropriate cost of capital is 9 percent and the maximum allowable payback is 4 years.

Compute the PI statistic for Project X and note whether the firm should accept or reject the project with the cash flows shown below if the appropriate cost of capital is 10 percent.

Use the IRR decision rule to evaluate these projects; which one(s) should be accepted or rejected?

Projects A and B are mutually exclusive. Project A costs $10,000 and is expected to generate cash inflows of $4,000 for 4 years. Project B costs $10,000 and is expected to generate a single cash flow in year 4 of $20,000. The cost of capital is 12%. Which project would you accept and why?

Compare and contrast the IRR and the MIRR statistic.

Use the PI decision rule to evaluate these projects; which one(s) should be accepted or rejected?

Compute the PI statistic for Project X and note whether the firm should accept or reject the project with the cash flows shown below if the appropriate cost of capital is 10 percent.

Explain the Rule of Signs as it pertains to IRR.
