Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that all projects being considered have normal cash flows and are equally risky. O If a project's IRR is equal to its WACC, then under all reasonable conditions, the project's IRR must be negative. O If a project's IRR is equal to its WACC, then under all reasonable conditions the project's NPV must be zero. O There is no necessary relationship between a project's IRR, its WACC, and its NPV. O When evaluating mutually exclusive projects, those projects with relatively long lives will tend to have relatively high NPVS when the cost of capital is relatively high. O If a project's IRR is equal to its WACC, then, under all reasonable conditions, the project's NPV must be negative.
Discuss the following statement. A manager believes that changes in NWC can be ignored from your free cash flow calculation if it will be recovered at the end of the project.
I'm not sure if I am doing this correctly.
Modified internal rate of return (MIRR) The IRR evaluation method assumes that cash flows from the project are reinvested at the same rate equal to the IRR. However, in reality the reinvested cash flows may not necessarily generate a return equal to the IRR. Thus, the modified IRR approach makes a more reasonable assumption other than the project’s IRR. Consider the following situation: Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $2,225,000. The project’s expected cash flows are: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $350,000 Year 2 –125,000 Year 3 450,000 Year 4 450,000 Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc.’s WACC is 7%, and the project has the same risk as the firm’s average project. Calculate this project’s modified internal rate of return (MIRR): -12.63% 26.46% 30.64% 29.24% If Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc.’s managers select projects based on the MIRR criterion,…
Sexton Inc. is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR, how much value will be forgone? Note that under certain conditions choosing projects on the basis of the IRR will not cause any value to be lost because the one with the higher IRR will also have the higher NPV, so no value will be lost if the IRR method is used. WACC: 9.50% 0 1 2 3 4 CFS -$2,050 $750 $760 $770 $780 CFL -$4,300 $1,500 $1,518 $1,536 $1,554 a. $145.46 b. $226.70 c. $228.58 d. $188.91 e. $230.47
If a project has a positive net present value, then which of the following statements are correct? I. The present value of all cash inflows must equal the costs of the project. The IRR is equal to the required rate of return. II. A increase in the project's initial cost will cause the project to have a higher positive NPV. III. Any delay in receiving the projected cash inflows will cause the project to have a higher positive NPV. IV. IRR must equal zero. Only II Only III All None of them
4. Modified internal rate of return (MIRR) The IRR evaluation method assumes that cash flows from the project are reinvested at the same rate equal to the IRR However, in reality the reinvested cash flows may not necessarily generate a return equal to the IRR. Thus, the modified IRR approach makes a more reasonable assumption other than the project's IRR Consider the following situation: Cold Goose Metal Works Inc. is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $600,000. The project's expected cash flows are: Year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Cold Goose Metal Works Inc.'s WACC is 7%, and the project has the same risk as the firm's average project. Calculate this project's modified internal rate of return (MIRR): 17.50% 14.00% Cash Flow $350,000 -100,000 450,000 400,000 19.25%
Assume a project has normal cash flows. All else equal, which of the following statements is correct? A project's regular payback increases as the WACC declines. OA project's IRR increases as the WACC declines. A project's NPV declines as the WACC declines. 4 A project's discounted payback increases as the WACC declines. O A project's MIRR is unaffected by changes in the WACC. None of the above statement.
When a capital investment is expected to provide unequal annual cash inflows, the payback period cannot be calculated.True or False
If we compare two mutually exclusive projects using __________ problems can arise if the projects' cash flows exhibit differences in ___________.
d. Consider the following statement "If an analyst decides to use real options methodology to value a project, estimating a standard Discounted Cash Flow model is useless". Do you agree with this statement? Explain your answer.
Which of the following is true of independent projects with conventional cash flow? O Due to time disparity NPV and IRR might make conflicting recommendations. Due to time disparity Pl and IRR might make conflicting recommendations. NPV and IRR will make the same accepts or reject recommendation. Due to size disparity NPV and IRR might make conflicting recommendations.
