Question

Theta Company is considering three capital expenditure projects. Relevant data for the projects are as follows.  

  Annual income is constant over the life of the project. Each project is expected to have zero salvage value at the end of the project. Theta Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation.  

Instructions

  Determine the internal rate of return for each project. (Round the internal rate of return factor to three decimal   places, e.g. 2.250.  Round final answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)

  If Theta Company's minimum required rate of return is 11%, which projects are acceptable?

Explanation / Answer

22A: add back 240,000 / 6 = 40,000...IRR= 8.874%, NPV = (240,000) + 53,300/1.11 + 53,300/1.11^2 +...+53,300/1.11^6 = ($14,512.33) <negative NPV, reject project

23A: add back 270,000 / 9 = 30,000...IRR= 12.169%, NPV = (270,000) + 51,000/1.11 +...+51,000/1.11^9 = $12,389.42 <positive NPV, accept project

24A: add back 288,000/ 8 = 36,000...IRR=11.018%, NPV = (288,000) + 56,000/1.11+..+56,000/1.11^8 = $182.87 <positive NPV, accept project
