A-What is the project’s NPV using a discount rate of 9 percent? Should the project be accepted? Why or why not?
B-What is the project’s NPV using a discount rate of 13 percent? Should the project be accepted? Why or why not?
C-What is this project internal rate of return? Should the project be accepted? Why or why not?
A-If the discount rate is 9 percent then the project NPV is? Round to the nearest dollar.
2-What is the internal rate of return for the following project? An initial outlay of $9,000 resulting in a single cash flow of $13,533 in 7 years.
A-The internal rate of return for the project is? %. Round to the nearest whole percent.
3-East Coast Television is considering a project with an initial outlay of $x. You will have to determine the amount. It is expected that the project will produce a positive cash flow of $57,000 a year at the end of each year for the next 16 years. The appropriate discount rate for this project is 11 percent. If the project has an internal rate of return of 16 percent, what is the project’s net present value?
A-If the project has an internal rate of return of 16% then the projects initial outlay is $? Round to the nearest cent.
4-The cash flows for three independent projects are found below
Initial Investment Project A Project B Project C
Year – 0 ($55,000) ($110,000) ($420,000)
