Project L is a 4 year project with initial (time O) cash outflow of 3000 and time 1 through 4 cash inflows of 400, 900, 1300, and 1500 respectively. Assuming a 5% cost of capital, compute the IRR for project S. 955% O 11.38% O 8.77% O 13.11% D Question 13 4 pts 41 PM O Type here to search 6/18/2018 20

Explanation / Answer

The Answer is “ 13.11% “

Internal Rate of Return [IRR] of the Project S = 13.11%

Step – 1, Firstly calculate NPV at 12%

Net Present Value [NPV] = Present Value of Annual cash flows – Initial Investment

= [ 1500 x 0.89285] + [ 1200 x 0.797193] + [ 800 x 0.711780] + [ 300 x 0.635518] – 3,000

= $3,056 – 3,000

= $56

Step – 2, NPV at 12% is Positive , Calculate the NPV again at a Higher Rate , Say 14%

= [ 1500 x 0.877192] + [ 1200 x 0.76946] + [ 800 x 0.674971] + [ 300 x 0.5920802] – 3,000

= $2956.75 – 3,000

= - $43.25 [ Negative NPV]

Therefore IRR = R1 + NPV1(R2-R1)

                                   NPV1-NPV2

= 12% + $56 (14% - 12%)

             $56 – (-43.25)

IRR = 12% + 1.11% = 13.11%
