Consider the relationship between a project’s net present value (NPV), its internal rate of return (IRR), and a company’s cost of capital. For each scenario that follows, indicate the relative value of the unknown. If cost of capital is unknown, indicate whether it would be higher or lower than the stated IRR. If NPV is unknown, indicate whether it would be higher or lower than zero. Project 1 is shown as an example.
18. In a situation such as Acron's, where a one-time cost is followed by a sequence of cash flows, the internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to 0. The idea is that if the discount rate is greater than the IRR, the company will not pursue the project, but if the discount rate is less than the IRR, the project is financially attractive. a. Use Excel's Goal Seek tool to find the IRR for the Acron model. b. Excel also has an IRR function. Look it up in online help to see how it works, and then use it on Acron's model. Of course, you should get the same IRR as in part a. c. Verify that the NPV is negative when the discount rate is slightly greater than the IRR, and that it is positive when the discount rate is slightly less than

An NPV profile graph shows how a project's payback varies as the cost of capital changes. O c. An NPV profile graph is designed to give decision makers an idea about how a project's contribution to the firm's value varies with the cost of capital. d. An NPV profile graph is designed to give decision makers an idea about how a project's risk varies with its life. e. We cannot draw a project's NPV profile unless we know the appropriate WACC for use in evaluating the project's NPV.
