Correct option is (a).
As per Descartes rule of sign,
Number of IRR = Number of change in sign of cash flow
In this case, there are 3 changes in sign of cash flows: Year 0 to Year 1 (- to +), Year 2 to Year 3 (+ to -), Year 3 to Year 4 (- to +).

QUESTION 7 Consider the following cash flows: Year Cash Flow 0 -$10,000 1 $1,000 2 $2,000 3 $3,000 4 $4,000 5 $5,000 Which equation would you use to compute the IRR? 1. -$10000 + $1000(P/G, i, 5) = 0 2. -$10,000 + $1,000 * (P/A, i, 5) + $1,000 * (P/G, i, 5) = 0 3. -$10,000 + $1,000 + $1,000 * (P/G,i,5) = 0 4. None of the above
Question 40 (1 point) The cost of investment is $1000 at time 0, the cash flow in year one is $2500, cash flow in year two is $3000 (negative cash flow), and the cash flow is $4000 in year three. Using the Descarte's rule of sign, what is the number of potential internal rates of return (IRRs) for the project? O 1) 3 oro O 2) 2 3) 1 4) 3 or 1 5) 2 or 0
6 Instructions Your manager wants you to evaluate two mutually exclusive projects. The cash flows of the project is given in the flowing tables. 8 Project 1 $ uomi Cash flow (30,000) 8,000 10,000 11,000 17,000 12,000 + Onm Project 2 Cash flow $ (15,000) 2,000 5,000 7,000 2,000 25,000 20 The required rate of return is 15%. The first step is too evaluate the project using NPV, IRR, payback rule 21 You will do so in each tab named...

Calculate the project's NPV at each of the following discount rates: 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%. b. What do the calculations tell you about this project's IRR? The IRR rule tells managers to invest if a project's IRR is greater than the cost of capital. If Acme Oscillators'...
