- (Use Calulator or Formula Approach) You are offered an investment that will pay you $200 in one year, $400 the next year, $600 the next year and $800 at the end of the fourth year. You can earn 12 percent on very similar investments. What is the most you should pay for this one?arrow_forwardConsider the three small mutually exclusive investment alternatives in the table below. The feasible alternative chosen must provide service for a 10-year period. The MARR is 12% per year, and the market value of each is 0 at the end of useful life. State all assumptions (repeatablity/co-terminated at 5 year study period) you make in your analysis. Which alternative should be chosen?

- An investment offers the following: a series of $1000 annual payments, starting one year from now, for a total of 12 payments. If your opportunity cost (as an EAR) is 5%, what is the investment worth to you today?

Use the present-value technique to estimate the IRR on this investment. b. If a minimum annual return of 9% is required, would you recommend this investment? #69 Part 1 a. The IRR of the investment is enter your response here%. (Round to the nearest whole percent.) Part 2 b. If a minimum return of 9% is required, would you recommend this investment? (Select the best choice below.) A. No, because this investment yields less than the minimum required return of 9%. B. Yes, because a minimum required return of 9% does not compensate for an investment that lasts longer than one year. C. No, because a minimum required return of 9% is an arbitrary choice for an investment of this risk level. D. Yes, because this investment yields more than the minimum required return of 9%arrow_forward

- 4. You have to select only one of the following projects (ie. They are mutually exclusive.) Project #1 is 4 years long and has an NPV of $140,000. Project #2 is 6 years long and has an NPV of $180,000. The required rate of return is 10%. Which project should you take using the EAA approach?arrow_forwardTrestle Corporation wants to purchase a new finishing machine. They currently have an old machine, which is operable for five more years and is expected to have a zero-disposal value at the end of five years. If the company buys the new machine, the old machine will be sold now for $95,000 (book value is $75,000). The new machine will cost $635,000 and will be depreciated for tax purposes on a straight-line basis over its useful life of 5 years. The new machine will not have a salvage value and will not be sold after its useful life. An additional cash investment in working capital of $25,000 will be required if the new machine is purchased. The investment is expected to net $80,000 in before tax cash inflows during the first year of operation and $235,000 each additional year of use. These cash flows do not include depreciation and are recognized at the end of each year. The working capital investment will not be recovered at the end of the asset's life. The company's tax rate is 32%.arrow_forwardYou are offered an investment with returns of $ 2,213 in year 1, $ 4,670 in year 2, and $ 3,184 in year 3. The investment will cost you $ 6,506 today.
