The equation for calculating the IRR is: timing Project A Project B 0 1 2 CFt is the expected cash flow in Period t and cash outflows are treated as negative cash flows. There must be a change in cash flow signs to calculate the IRR. The IRR equation is simply the NPV equation solved for the particular discount rate that causes NPV to equal zero 320 255 The IRR calculation assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the IRR If the IRR is greater ✔than the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital, then the project should be accepted; however, if the IRR is less than the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital, then the project should be rejected ✓✓✓. Because of the IRR reinvestment rate assumption, when mutually exclusive projects are evaluated the IRR approach can lead to conflicting results from the NPV method.

- Consider two assets with the following cash flow streams: Asset A generates $4 at t=1, $3 at t=2, and $10 at t=3. Asset B generates $2 at t=1, $X at t=2, and $10 at t=3. Suppose X=6 and the interest rate r is constant. For r=0.1, calculate the present value of the two assets. Determine the set of all interest rates {r} such that asset A is more valuable than asset Draw the present value of the assets as a function of the interest rate. Suppose r=0.2. Find the value X such that the present value of asset B is 12. Suppose the (one-period) interest rates are variable and given as follows: r01=0.1,r12=0.2, r23=0.3. Calculate the yield to maturity of asset A. (You can use Excel or ascientific calculator to find the solution numerically.)arrow_forwardDetermine the future value of the following single amounts.

Note that this cash flow returns increasing amounts after the initial investment. Drag left or right on the graph to move the cursors to see the net present value (NPV) for different costs of capital. The point where the curve crosses the X-axis determines the internal rate of return (IRR). (Note: due to limited pixel resolution, it is sometimes difficult to get to that precise point.)arrow_forward
