IRR is the internal rate of return generated from the cash flows of the project. A conventional cash flows in a project will have one IRR and as many more IRRs as the number of sign changes.
Here, it will have 3 IRRs.

Compute the sum of the two IRRs 4. The following cash-flow pattern has two IRRs. Use Excel to draw a graph of the NPV of these cash flows as a function of the discount rate. Then use the IRR function to identify the two IRRs. Would you invest in this project if the opportunity cost were 20%? 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 A Year 0 1 2 3 4 5 B Cash flow -500 600 300 300 200...
Consider Project Theta, its time line of cash flows, and one of the project IRRs: Year....................0.............1............2............IRR Cash Flow......($200).....$850....($700)......15% What is the best decision for Project Theta (accept or reject) if the project’s required rate of return is 15% and why? a. Accept the project because the payback is short b. Accept the project because the NPV is greater than zero c. Reject the project because the IRR is less than the required rate of return d. Reject the project because...
