cash flows to be consistent with the year. 7. Given the shortcomings of the IRR methodology‚ it still proves to be an accurate method to use in evaluating the project alternatives facing IEI. It measures the benefits or returns relative to the amount invested and does not give a fixed dollar amount of return‚ unlike NPV which is prone to error. IRR also discounts the cash flows unlike the undiscounted payback period. IRR also proves to be accurate because accdg. To this method‚ among the investment

to the IRR rule you would pick project S and according to the NVP rule it is telling us to pick Project L. f. 1. What is the underlying cause of ranking conflicts between NVP and IRR? There are conflicts when it comes to NVP and IRR because of the size of a project and the size and timing pattern of cash flows. It would not show accurate information when comparing the larger projects to smaller ones. 2. What is the reinvestment rate assumption‚ and how does it affect the NVP versus IRR conflict

internal rate of return (IRR) are two very practical discounted cash flow (DCF) calculations used for making capital budgeting decisions. NPV and IRR lead to the same decisions with investments that are independent. With mutually exclusive investments‚ the NPV method is easier to use and more reliable. Introduction To this point neither of the two discounted cash flow procedures for evaluating an investment is obviously incorrect. In many situations‚ the internal rate of return (IRR) procedure will lead

expected return and risk of failure in the project‚ the IRR can generate two different values for the same project when future cash flows switch from negative to positive (or positive to negative). In addition‚ since the IRR is expressed as a percentage‚ and This can make small projects appear more attractive than large ‚ although large projects with lower IRR may be more attractive as NPV of smaller projects with IRR . The management of the IRR must be just when the project generates no interim cash

Bullock Gold Mining The payback period for Bullock Gold Mining in the book does not have a required time period. Usually‚ a company has a pre-specified length of time as a benchmark. The decision rule is to invest in projects that pay sooner or have a shorter payback period. We calculated the payback period to be 3.96 years which is less than half of the expected duration of the project. To determine 3.96 we added the Present Value of the Cash Flows until we matched the initial investment
