What is the right answer for this problem:
Suppose you are offered $5,000 today but must make the following payments:
Year $ Cash flows
0 5000
1 -2,500
2 -2000
3 -1000
4 -1000
a. What is the IRR of this offer?
b. If the appropriate discount rate is 10%, should you accept this offer?
c. If the appropriate discount rate is 20%, should you accept this offer?
d. What is the NPV of the offer if the appropriate discount rate is 10%? 20%?
e. Are the decisions under the NPV rule in part (d) consistent with those of the IRR rule?
Cash Flows question. I used the excel worksheet and the calculator and got 2 different result for the NPV.?refinance
a) 14% =irr(5000,-2500,-2000,-1000,-1000) in Excel
b) r=10%. No, the project is worth -359= npv(10%;-2500,-2000,-1000,-1000)+5000
c) r=20%. No, the project is worth -466
d) See above
e) No. While the IRR represents a hurdle rate, negative projects must be declined in accordance with the NPV rule. Typically, a projects would be accepted when IRR%26gt;Cost of capital, or in this case, the discount rate being used.
