A firm is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. The CEO wants to use the IRR criterion, while the CFO favors the NPV method. You were hired to advise the firm on the best procedure.

Use a minus sign to enter a negative value, if any. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.NPV: $   Should The investment   be made? An alternative use for the $420,000 is a four-year U.S. Treasury bond that pays $25,200 annually and repays the $420,000 at maturity. Management believes that the cash inflows from the risky investment are equivalent to only 70 percent of the certain investment, which pays 6 percent. Should the investment be made? Use Appendix B to answer the question. Do not round other intermediate calculations. NPV: $   Should The investment  be made?

1. Suppose your firm is considering investing in a project with the cash flows shown as follows, that the required rate of return on projects of this risk class is 8 percent, and that the maximum allowable payback and discounted payback statistics for the project are 3.5 and 4.5 years, respectively.

A company puts together a set of cash flow projections and calculates an IRR of 25% for the project. The firm's cost of capital is about 10%. The CEO maintains that the favorability of the calculated IRR relative to the cost of capital makes the project an easy choice for acceptance and urges management to move forward immediately. i. Should this project be evaluated using different standards? ii. How does the possibility of bankruptcy as a result of the project affect the analysis? iii. Are capital budgeting rules still appropriate?

Data Computer Systems is considering a project that has the following cash flow data.  What is the project's IRR?  Note that a project's IRR can be less than the WACC (and even negative), in which case it will be rejected.   Year                           0                1                2                3     Cash flows            -$1,100        $450          $480          $500

Huang Industries is considering a proposed project whose estimated NPV is $12 million. This estimate assumes that economic conditions will be "average." However, the CFO realizes that conditions could be better or worse, so she performed a scenario analysis and obtained these results: Economic Scenario Probability of Outcome NPV Recession 0.05 ($34 million) Below average 0.20 (16 million) Average 0.50 12 million Above average 0.20 16 million Boom 0.05 28 million Calculate the project's expected NPV, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation. Enter your answers for the project's expected NPV and standard deviation in millions. For example, an answer of $13,000,000 should be entered as 13. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. E(NPV): million σNPV: million CV:

You are going to allocate capital into safe and risky assets. The risky asset will earn 200% return if the economy is good (with a 55% chance). If, otherwise, it will lose 60% of the investment principal.
