To determine

Concept introduction:

Cash flow-it generally defines the advantages and the cost of a future project. As cost is represented through cash outflows and benefits as cash inflow. The present value of a cash flow refers to the discounted value of the present month of prospect sum of money.

Internal rate of return (IRR)- is used in order to measure the profitability of the possible investment. It is a rate of discount that makes the net present value of all cash flow equal to zero.

Requirement 1:

To have an internal rate of return(IRR) 10% how much annually cash flow should A inc earn from the project.

Assume Apple invested $2.12 billion to expand its manufacturing capacity. Assume that these assets have a 10-year life and that Apple requires a 10% internal rate of return on these assets. Required 1. What is the amount of annual cash flows that Apple must earn from these projects to have a 10% internal rate of return? Hint: Identify the 10-period, 10% factor from the present value of an annuity table, and then divide $2.12 billion by this factor to get the annual cash flows necessary 2. Access Apple’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, from Appendix A. a. Determine the amount that Apple invested in capital assets for 2017. Hint: Refer to the statement of cash flows. b. Did Apple invest more in capital assets or in marketable securities for 2017?
Which is the correct answer? Use the following table for this question Present value of an Annuity of $1   Periods             8%               9%             10% 1                       .926            .917              .909 2                     1.783          1.759             1.736 3                     2.577         2.531             2.487   A company has a minimum required rate of return of 9% and is considering investing in a project which costs $25,000 and is expected to generate cash inflows of $10,000 at the end of each year for three years. The net presentvalue of this project is:   a.  $25,310                      b.  $15,000                      c.  $9,170                         d.  $5,310
The value of an investment comes from its cash flows. Let’s say you are intent on receiving $45,000 per year, starting at the end of year one and continuing over 10 years. A lump sum of $380,000 invested now (year 0) will allow you to receive your desired annual amount. What interest rate is required to make this happen?
