- Find the modified internal rate of return (MIRR) for a proposed project costing $12,513. Assume that the appropriate cost of capital for projects of this risk level, at this company is 10.96%, and the estimated cash flows for the life of the project are found in the table below. (If you calculate an MIRR of 20.22% , please enter 20.22- do not include the % symbol, and use at least two decimal places).

The actual IRR is greater than 17%.c. The actual IRR is less than 17%.d. The actual IRR is undefined.e. There is no way to know anything about the IRR from this statement.arrow_forwardFinance Questionarrow_forward18. In a situation such as Acron's, where a one-time cost is followed by a sequence of cash flows, the internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to 0. The idea is that if the discount rate is greater than the IRR, the company will not pursue the project, but if the discount rate is less than the IRR, the project is financially attractive. a. Use Excel's Goal Seek tool to find the IRR for the Acron model. b. Excel also has an IRR function. Look it up in online help to see how it works, and then use it on Acron's model. Of course, you should get the same IRR as in part a. c. Verify that the NPV is negative when the discount rate is slightly greater than the IRR, and that it is positive when the discount rate is slightly less thanarrow_forward

If the discount rate is zero, what is the NPV? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) b. If the discount rate is infinite, what is the NPV?

- If an investment project has a negative net present value (NPV), which one of the following statements about the internal rate of return (IRRT) of this project must be true? Select the correct response: The IRR is negative. The IRR is less than the company's weighted average cost of capital. The IRR is equal to zero. The IRR is greater than the company's weighted average cost of capital.arrow_forwardThe blue curve (labeled "L") depicts the NPV for a project with larger cash flows later of -$1,000, $100, $300, $400, and $675.
