Suppose that we make contributions to a fund of $125 today and $750 in two years for a return of $1000 in one year. First write the Net Present Value as a function of the discount factor ν. Secondly, use the NPV to calculate the yield rate of this investment (select the larger value for i. Finally, explain whether or not this is a good investment for us.

You are evaluating five different investments, all of which involve an upfront outlay of cash. Each investment will provide a single cash payment back to you in the future. Details of each investment appears here: Calculate the IRR of each investment. State your answer to the nearest basis point (i.e., the nearest 1/100th of 1%, such as 3.76%).

Consider the following cash flow. Calculate the rate of return for an investment of 1000 TL.
You are considering an investment project with the cash flows of -300 (the initial cash flow), 800 (cash flow at year 1), -200 (cash flow at year 2). Given the discount rate of 10%, compute the Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR) using the discountingapproach. 19.72% 71.94% 37.52% 50.55%
What would be the interest rate that would allow you to convert an investment from B/.5,000 to B/.20,227.79 in 10 years? (NOTE: Do this problem ONLY with Conversion Factor and the corresponding Excel Financial Function and remember to confirm your answer with the corresponding Cash Flow Table)
You are considering an investment project with the cash flows of -300 (the initial cash flow), 700 (cash flow at year 1), -200 (cash flow at year 2). Given the discount rate of 10%, compute the Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR) using the discounting approach. 50.44% 10.72% O 28.64% O 37.84%
The internal rate of return (IRR) on a project is the average annual rate of return provided by investing in the project. A. Explain this thoroughly. B. Give some example if you have any idea.
(Present value of an uneven stream of payments) You are given three investment alternatives to analyze. The cash flows from these three investments are shown in the popup window: Assuming a discount rate of 16 percent, find the present value of each investment. a.

Use the information provided to answer the questions Calculate the Accounting Rate of Return (on average investment) of Project B (expressed to twodecimal places).Calculate the Net Present Value of each project (with amounts rounded off to the nearest Rand). Use your answers from previous question to recommend the project that should be chosen. Motivateyour choice.
Which of the following statements is true? The internal rate of return is the rate of return of an investment project over its useful life. When the net cash inflow is the same every year for a project after the initial investment, the internal rate of return of a project can be determined by dividing the initial investment required in the project by the annual net cash inflow. This computation yields a factor that can be looked up in a table of present values of annuities to find the internal rate of return. Multiple Choice Only statement I is true. Only statement II is true. Both statements are true.
Consider an investment that pays off $700 or $1,400 per $1,000 invested with equal probability. Suppose you have $1,000 but are willing to borrow to increase your expected return. What would happen to the expected value and standard deviation of the investment if you borrowed an additional $1,000 and invested a total of $2,000? What if you borrowed $2,000 to invest a total of $3,000? Instructions: Complete the table below to answer the questions above. Enter your responses as whole numbers and enter percentage values as percentages not decimals (i.e., 23% not 0.23). Enter a negative sign (-) to indicate a negative number if necessary.

Assume that you have two investment alternatives: the first project produces $125 for sure, and the second project produces $150 with probability 2/5. You can borrow $110 from your financial institution for one project (investment) if you show an asset as a collateral. Suppose that you maximize your expected profit, what would be the minimum level of collateral that make you select the safe project?
Consider the following sets of investment projects: (a) Classify each project as either simple or nonsimple.(b) Compute the i* for Project A, using the quadratic equation.(c) Obtain the rate(s) of return for each project by plotting the PW as a function of interest rate.
