Net present value method, internal rate of return method, and analysis for a service company The management of Advanced Alternative Power Inc. is considering two capital investment projects. The estimated net cash flows from each project are as follows: The wind turbines require an investment of 887,600, while the biofuel equipment requires an investment of 911,100. No residual value is expected from either project. Instructions 1. Compute the following for each project: A. The net present value. Use a rate of 6% and the present value of an annuity table appearing in Exhibit 5 of this chapter. B. A present value index. (Round to two decimal places.) 2. Determine the internal rate of return for each project by (A) computing a present value factor for an annuity of 1 and (B) using the present value of an annuity of 1 table appearing in Exhibit 5 of this chapter. 3. What advantage does the internal rate of return method have over the net present value method in comparing projects?
Redbird Company is considering a project with an initial investment of $265,000 in new equipment that will yield annual net cash flows of $45,800 each year over its seven-year life. The companys minimum required rate of return is 8%. What is the internal rate of return? Should Redbird accept the project based on IRR?
Staten Corporation is considering two mutually exclusive projects. Both require an initial outlay of 150,000 and will operate for five years. The cash flows associated with these projects are as follows: Statens required rate of return is 10%. Using the net present value method and the present value table provided in Appendix A, which of the following actions would you recommend to Staten? a. Accept Project X and reject Project Y. b. Accept Project Y and reject Project X. c. Accept Projects X and Y. d. Reject Projects X and Y.
Project S has a cost of $10,000 and is expected to produce benefits (cash flows) of $3,000 per year for 5 years. Project L costs $25,000 and is expected to produce cash flows of $7,400 per year for 5 years. Calculate the two projects’ NPVs, IRRs, MIRRs, and PIs, assuming a cost of capital of 12%. Which project would be selected, assuming they are mutually exclusive, using each ranking method? Which should actually be selected?
Roberts Company is considering an investment in equipment that is capable of producing more efficiently than the current technology. The outlay required is 2,293,200. The equipment is expected to last five years and will have no salvage value. The expected cash flows associated with the project are as follows: Required: 1. Compute the projects payback period. 2. Compute the projects accounting rate of return. 3. Compute the projects net present value, assuming a required rate of return of 10 percent. 4. Compute the projects internal rate of return.
