Explanation

0 = −$113,800 + $37,200/(1 + IRR) + $45,900/(1 + IRR)2 + $56,600/(1 + IRR)+ $22,100/(1 + IRR)4
IRR = .1638, or 16.38%

Correct
·       
$12,549.19

Explanation

NPV = −$166,240 + $36,900/(1 + .086) + $68,190/(1 + .086)2 + $62,690/(1 + .086)+ $60,590/(1 + .086)4 + $43,690/(1 + .086)5
NPV = $46,982.37


Maud'Dib Intergalactic has a new project available on Arrakis. The cost of the project is $32,500 and it will provide cash flows of $17,000, $21,800, and $19,300 over each of the next three years, respectively. Any cash earned in Arrakis is "blocked" and must be reinvested in the country for one year at an interest of 2.8 percent. The project has a required return of 7.8 percent. What is the project's NPV?
Multiple Choice
·       
$27,384.94
·       
$15,119.61
Correct
·       
$25,102.86
·       
$22,431.11
Incorrect
·       
$17,435.74

Explanation

Year 2 cash flow = $17,000(1 + .028) = $17,476.00
Year 3 cash flow = $21,800(1 + .028) = $22,410.40
Year 4 cash flow = $19,300(1 + .028) = $19,840.40

NPV = −$32,500 + $0/(1 + .078) + $17,476.00/(1 + .078)2 + $22,410.40/(1 + .078)+ $19,840.40/(1 + .078)4
NPV = $15,119.61
