Explanation / Answer

a. NPV at 8% b. NPV at 15% Year Cash flow Discount Factor Present Value Year Cash flow Discount Factor Present Value a b c=1.08^-a b*c a b c=1.15^-a b*c 0 $       -1,300                        1.000 $                -1,300 0 $          -1,300                        1.000 $                -1,300 1 $             470                        0.926 $                     435 1 $               470                        0.870 $                     409 2 $             570                        0.857 $                     489 2 $               570                        0.756 $                     431 3 $             580                        0.794 $                     460 3 $               580                        0.658 $                     381 4 $             360                        0.735 $                     265 4 $               360                        0.572 $                     206 5 $             160                        0.681 $                     109 5 $               160                        0.497 $                       80 22% NPV $                     458 NPV $                     206 IRR = 8%+(15%-8%)*(458/(458-206)) = 20.72% Thus, IRR is 20.72% Project should be accepted. The reason behind acceptence is that IRR is more than cost of capital.
