chance that a cash flow will turn out to be worse than the estimate. b. the chance that a cash flow will turn out to be different than the estimate, either better or worse. c. the chance that the cash flows that turn out to be more favorable than the estimate won't totally offset the cash flows that turn out to be worse than the estimate. d. the chance that the NPV and/or IRR will turn out to be worse than the estimate. e. all of the above describe the risk in cash flow estimating.

An advantage of the internal rate of return method is that a.it considers the time value of money. b.it can rank proposals of equal lives. c.it considers the cash flows of the investment. d.All of these choices are correct.

h. What does the term “risk” mean in the context of capital budgeting; to what extent can risk be quantified; and, when risk is quantified, is the quantification based primarily on a statistical analysis of historical data or on subjective, judgmental estimates? i. 1. What are the three types of risk that are relevant in capital budgeting? 2. How is each of these risk types measured, and how do they relate to one another? 3. How is each type of risk used in the capital budgeting process? j. 1. What is sensitivity analysis? 2. Perform a sensitivity analysis on the cost per unit, unit sales, and salvage value. Assume each of these variables can vary from its base-case, or expected, value by plus or minus 10%, 20%, and 30%. Include a sensitivity graph, and discuss the results. 3. What is the primary weakness of sensitivity analysis? What is its primary usefulness?

What is capital budgeting? Explain various steps in its preparation and throw light on its limitations.

Forecasting risk can be defined as the possibility that _____ will lead to incorrect decisions. a. the inclusion of opportunity costs b. erosion c. errors in projected cash flows d. the exclusion of sunk costs e. net working capital costs

When the underlying riskiness of free cash flows (FCF) decreases, the value of the project O increases stays the same decreases

Certainty Equivalent Cash flow (CEQ) is obtained through converting the expected cash flows by a ______ shift of risk. If we discount the CEQ by the time value of money, we will have the present value _______ discounting future cash flow by time and risk discounting factor. Therefore, CEQ is always ______ than the expected cash flow. Find the correct choice to fill the blanks. A. time varying, same as, lowerB. constant, same as, lower C. time varying, higher than, lowerD. constant, same as, higher

Payback is considered an unsophisticated capital budgeting technique because it _______.

Discuss and critically evaluate the relationship between risk and return.  Discuss and critically evaluate Time value of money.
