18. Consider projects S and L. Both have normal cash flows and the projects have the same risk, hence both are evaluated with the same cost of capital, 10%. However, S has a higher IRR than L. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? A. If project S has a positive NPV, Project L must also have a positive NPV. B. If the cost of capital increases, each project's IRR will decrease. C. If the cost of capital fails, each project's IRR will increase. D. If Projects S and L have the same NPV at the current cost of capital, 10%, then Project L, the one with the lower IRR, would have a higher NPV if the cost of capital used to evaluate the projects decline.

I. If there is a positive NPV, IRR is higher than the cost of capital.II. If annual net cash inflow is equal to the cost of investment, then, NPV is zero. A• FF B• TF C• TT D• FT
The blue curve (labeled "L") depicts the NPV for a project with larger cash flows later of -$1,000, $100, $300, $400, and $675. The red curve (labeled "S") depicts the NPV for a project with larger cash flows sooner of -$1,000, $500, $400, $300, and $100. Drag on the graph either left or right to change the cost of capital interest rate at which the NPV is evaluated for the two projects.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR greater than the cost of capital, the project must also have a positive NPV. b. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR less than the cost of capital, the project must have a positive NPV. c. If the NPV is negative, the IRR must also be negative. d. A project's MIRR can never exceed its IRR. e. If Project A's IRR exceeds Project B's, then A must have the higher NPV.
6. Assuming that their NPVs based on the firm's cost of capital are equal, the NPV of a project whose cash flows accrue relatively rapidly will be more sensitive to changes in the discount rate than the NPV of a project whose cash flows come in later in its life. Group of answer choices True False
Which of the following statements is most FALSE? A. If a project with normal cash flows has a positive NPV, it will definitely have an MIRR greater than the cost of capital. B. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR that is greater than the cost of capital, then taking on that project would decrease the value of the firm. C. If a project has normal cash flows, then the MIRR has to be between k and IRR if the project has positive interim cash flows (cash flows between t=0 and the end of the project). D. If a project with normal cash flows does not have any interim cash flows, the project's IRR will equal the project's MIRR. E. Multiple IRRS can exist for a project if the project has nonnormal cash flows. OA OB OC
For a typical project evaluation with initial investment at time=0 and positive cash flows afterwards, each statement in the following shows possible answers in parenthesis. Choose the answer that shows correct answers for all statements. Statement 1: When NPV = 0, investors earn (negative/zero/positive) return. Statement 2: Accept the project when valuation is (higher/the same/lower) than the cost. Statement 3: When IRR> cost of capital, NPV is (negative/zero/positive). Statement 4: Cost of capital is determined by the (company/investors) considering the (business risk/systematic) risk) a. negative, higher, positive, investors and systematic b. positive, lower, positive, investors and business c. positive, higher, zero, company and systematic d. positive, higher, positive, investors and systematic
a. If NPV is negative, company usually rejects the project. While, if ARR is greater than cost of capital, company accept the project. Last, if Profitability index is greater than 1, accept the project.b. If IRR on investment is zero, its annual cash flows is equal to its required investment. A• FF B• TT C• TF D• FT
Which of the following is CORRECT? Select one: a. If the NPV of a project is negative, the IRR for the project must also be negative. b. A project's MIRR can never exceed its IRR. c. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR less than WACC, the project must have a positive NPV. d. If Project 1's IRR exceeds Project 2's IRR, then 1 must have a higher NPV than 2. e. If a project with normal cash flows has an IRR greater than WACC, the project must have a positive NPV. You purchase a house for $250,000. After you make your down payment of $50,000, you are financing $200,000 for 30 years at an annual percentage rate of 5.4%. How much are your monthly payments? Select one: a. Less than $1,000 b. Between $1,000 and $1,050 c. Between $1,050 and $1,100 d. Between $1,100 and $1,150 e. Greater than $1,200
If a project with conventional cash flows has an IRR equal to the required return, then: O The profitability index is one. O The IRR must be zero. O The project should be accepted, as the NPV is greater than zero. O The payback period is less than the maximum acceptable period. The NPV is negative.
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. a. If Project A has a higher IRR than Project B, then Project A must also have a higher NPV. b. If a project has normal cash flows and its IRR exceeds its cost of capital, then the project's NPV must be positive. c. The IRR calculation implicitly assumes that all cash flows are reinvested at the cost of capital. d. If Project A has a higher IRR than Project B, then Project A must have the lower NPV. e. The IRR calculation implicitly assumes that cash flows are withdrawn from the business rather than being reinvested in the business.
As the level of risk increases, the corresponding cost of capital (i.e. the return) must _____________________ . a) go up b) go down c) stay the same.
