Q. A positive NPV forecast for a new project is reliable only if it is based on
Multiple Choices:
- forecasts of cash flows.
- identifiable sources of economic rents.
- Michael Porter's theories.
- results from Monte Carlo analysis.
which of the following statement is true>?
1. return on equity is the ratio of total assets to total net income
2. one must know the discount rate to compute the npv of a project but one can compute the IRR without referring to the discount rate.
3. there will always be one IRR regardless of cash flows
4. one must know the discount rate to compute the IRR of a project but one can compute the NPV without referring to the discount rate
5. payback accounts for time value of money
1] What are three concerns the financial manager should be aware of when analyzing a balance sheet, & income statement? Why do we need a statement of cash flows? How does a statement of cash flow differ from balance sheet and income statement?
2] Net Present Value Suppose a project has conventional cash flows and a positive NPV. What do you know about its payback? Its discounted payback? Its profitability index? Its IRR? Explain.

- Problem 1. What is the estimated rate of return for n this projectarrow_forwardTrue or False A project will have multiple internal rates of return if its future net cash flows alternate between negative and positive values.arrow_forward1] Payback and Internal Rate of Return: A project has perpetual cash flows of C per period, a cost of I, and a required return of r. What is the relationship between the project’s payback and its IRR? What implications does your answer have for long-lived projects with relatively constant cash flows? 2] WHAT ARE THE PROBLEMS WITH IRR APPROACH TO CAPITAL BUDGETING? 3] COMPARE IRR WITH MIRR METHOD.arrow_forward
- Can I calculate the Rate of Return using the NPV/initial investment? Why or why not?arrow_forwardYour firm is considering what has been estimated to be a positive NPV project (NPV > 0).

Suppose an investment has conventional cash flows with positive NPV. How would it impact your decision based on capital budgeting techniques mentioned below? i. Profitability index (PI) ii.

- 1. What is the project’s net present value? 2. What is the project’s internal rate of return to the nearest whole percent? 3. What is the project’s simple rate of return?arrow_forwardNet Present Value You are evaluating two projects, Project A and Project B . Project A has a short period of future cash flows, while Project B has relatively long future cash flows. Which project will be more sensitive to changes in the required return? Why?arrow_forwardWe should accept a project if the Net Present Value is positive and the Internal Rate of Return is higher than the cost of capital. What are the reasons for that, what this means?arrow_forward
