- 5. A firm evaluates all of its projects by applying the NPV rule. A project under consideration has the following cash flows: Year 0 1 2 3 Cash flow $ -34,000 16,000 18,000 15,000 If the required return is 12 percent, what is the NPV for this project? Should the firm accept the project? Explain. What is the NPV for this project if the required return is 35 percent? Should the firm accept the project? Explain. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.arrow_forwardThe following are two projects a firm is considering: Project B Cash Flow Year 0 1 2 3 4 $2,939.01 Assuming that the relevant cost of capital for both projects is 11%, you should be able to determine the net present value (NPV) and the internal rate of return (IRR) for both project. Assume now that the firm has capital rationing, but knows that its true reinvestment rate is 20%, while its cost of capital is 11 percent. Given this information, determine the modified net present value (MNPV) for Project B.

Suppose you are evaluating a project with the expected future cash inflows shown in the following table. Your boss has asked you to calculate the project’s net present value (NPV).
