Two firms, Tangerine Inc. and Cyan Inc. analyzed the same capital budgeting project. Tangerine Inc. determined that the project's internal rate of return (IRR) is 9 percent. Cyan Inc. used the net present value (NPV) method to evaluate the project and determined that it is not acceptable. Given this information, which of the following statements is correct? Group of answer choices Cyan Inc.'s required rate of return is greater than 5 percent. I Cyan Inc.'s required rate of return is greater than 9 percent. Tangerine's chief financial officer (CFO) should use the traditional payback period method to evaluate the project. The net present value of the project must be positive for both the firms.

Suppose that you are considering two projects and only have the financial resources to choose one project. Project A has an internal rate of return (IRR) of 14.5% and Project B, an IRR of 23.5%. The cost of capital is 12%. Explain whether the IRR capital budgeting technique is suitable for you to determine your project selection.
The Wonder Company uses only the IRR method for capital budgeting. Suppose it is considering a project with expenditures of -$93 today at t = 0. There is no t = 1 cash flow, but at t = 2, there is a positive cash flow of $108. There are no other cash flows attributed to this project. Calcuate to a four-place precision the IRR for The wonder company and then convert to a two-place percent for input.
A company wants to decide which project to undertake out of two projects A and B. For this purpose, it wants to evaluate each project that have the same initial investment (cost) but different cash flows for the next three years. The following table gives information on these two projects. The discount rate to be used is 8 percent, which is the WACC for the company. Use two methods of capital budgeting: The Net Present Value (NPV) Method and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) Method, to evaluate and compare the two projects. Based on the outcome of calculations, choose the best project A or B and explain your decision for each method. Show all your work for each method step by step. Initial Investment and Cash Flows of Projects A and B in AED Project A Project B Initial Investment - 150,000 - 150,000 Year 1 Cash flow 20,000 50,000 Year 2 Cash flow 90,000 90,000 Year 3 Cash flow 70,000 60,000
Hardchoice Corp. is a firm considering prospective capital budgeting projects. Selected data on the projects follow: Image attached 1b) Ignoring the information in question (1a), assume instead that projects A and C are independent, Hardchoice is subject to capital rationing (i.e., it may not be able to afford both projects), and the relevant discount rate is 10%. a) What is the IRR of Project A? Project C? b) How would you rank Project A compared to Project C? Pls show formula used. Final dollar answers should be rounded to two decimal places. Interest rate answers should be rounded to 6 decimal places if expressed as a decimal or 4 decimal places if expressed as a percent. Use timeline if necessary. No excel .Thanks!
Huang Industries is considering a proposed project whose estimatedNPV is $12 million. This estimate assumes that economic conditions will be “average.”However, the CFO realizes that conditions could be better or worse, so she performed ascenario analysis and obtained these results: Calculate the project’s expected NPV, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation.
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.
8. Modified Internal rate of return (MIRR) The IRR evaluation method assumes that cash flows from the project are reinvested at the same rate equal to the IRR. However, in reality the reinvested cash flows may not necessarily generate a return equal to the IRR. Thus, the modified IRR approach makes a more reasonable assumption other than the project's IRR. Consider the following situation: Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is analyzing a project that requires an initial investment of $400,000. The project's expected cash flows are: Year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Cash Flow $325,000 -200,000 425,000 475,000
Find the modified internal rate of return (MIRR) for a proposed project costing $12,513. Assume that the appropriate cost of capital for projects of this risk level, at this company is 10.96%, and the estimated cash flows for the life of the project are found in the table below. (If you calculate an MIRR of 20.22% , please enter 20.22- do not include the % symbol, and use at least two decimal places). Year 1 $7,261 Year 2 $4,832 Year 3 $9,441.2 Year 4 $13,000 Year 5 $12,638
Yokam Company is considering two alternative projects. Project 1 requires an initial investment of $400,000 and has a present value of cash flows of $1,100,000. Project 2 requires an initial investment of $4 million and has a present value of cash flows of $6 million. Compute the profitability index for each project. Based on the profitability index, which project should the company prefer? Explain.
Purple Whale Foodstuffs Inc. is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project (project Sigma) that will require an initial investment of $850,000. Purple Whale Foodstuffs Inc. has been basing capital budgeting decisions on a project’s NPV; however, its new CFO wants to start using the IRR method for capital budgeting decisions. The CFO says that the IRR is a better method because returns in percentage form are easier to understand and compare to required returns. Purple Whale Foodstuffs Inc.’s WACC is 8%, and project Sigma has the same risk as the firm’s average project. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $275,000 Year 2 $400,000 Year 3 $450,000 Year 4 $425,000 Which of the following is the correct calculation of project Sigma’s IRR? 25.51% 21.48% 22.82% 26.85% If this is an independent project, the IRR method states that the firm should .
