method of evaluating investments is an alternative to the NPV method. The NPV method of discounted cash flow determines whether an investment earns a positive or a negative NPV when discounted at a given rate of interest. If the NPV is zero (that is‚ the present values of costs and benefits are equal) the return from the project would be exactly the rate used for discounting. This assignment introduces NPV and IRR‚ and calculates the company NPV and IRR Analysis 4.1Use appropriate information

With the Discounted Payback Period‚ investments that have a Positive Net Present Value (NPV) over the longer term will be rejected because of the fact that we have to set an arbitrary cut-off point. Since we determine a cut-off point‚ we are ignoring the possibility of growing cash flows thereafter. Thus‚ we are ignoring cash flows that are

the PV of the inflows the next year divided by the discount rate‚ which was given to us as 12%. Once NPVs were found for each individual sequel‚ we took the sum and divided it by the number of sequels‚ which is 99. This calculation led us to an NPV of -$3.38. Then we had to discount these values back 2 years to get an average NPV per sequel of -$2.69. We need to discount back 2 years because the NPV for our years 3 and 4 (for the film sequel) give us years 2 and 3‚ but we want years 0 and 1‚ so we

In order to identify and document the financial strengths and weaknesses of each option‚ our team has forecasted the NPV for each scenario‚ including the lease versus buy for each term length. First‚ we calculate the NPV of purchasing all 7‚542 computers and their software for 24 months at $750 and $250‚ respectively. This therefore requires an initial investment of $ 7‚542‚000.

calculated the present value of the future Free Cash Flows until 2006. After that‚ based on the assumption that after 2006 CF would grow at 5%‚ we estimated the terminal value of the company. Finally‚ based on these assumptions‚ the NPV of the project would be: 1228‚485 2. What is the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of this project? The internal rate of return is the rate that would make the net present value of the firm’s project equal to zero. In other words‚ the IRR is the

Which investment has the higher IRR? a) Since IR is defined as the rate of return that makes the NPV = 0: Investment A: Setting NPV = $0‚ and solving for r $0 = [pic] [pic][pic] r = [pic] IRR = 20% Investment B: Setting NPV = $0‚ and solving for r $0 = [pic] [pic][pic] r -0.02 = [pic] r – 0.02 = 0.15 r = 0.15 + 0.02 IRR = 17% b.
