A company is trying to determine which projects to fund. Since the firm does not have the capital budget to fund all the projects, rank each by IRR. If the firm’s capital budget is $75,000, which projects will be funded? What will the firm’s MARR be?
We need to find IRR for each alternative using RATE function in Excel, then arrange alternatives in increasing values of IRR,
In second step we need to find cumulative investment when an investment is done in serial order from alternative with highest IRR to the alternative with decreasing IRR
Projects | N | First Cost | Annual Benefits | Salvage value | IRR | Cumulative investment |
1 | 10 | 10000 | 2500 | 0 | 21.4% | 10000 |
7 | 10 | 20000 | 4200 | 10000 | 19.0% | 30000 |
6 | 15 | 25000 | 5000 | 3000 | 18.6% | 55000 |
2 | 10 | 20000 | 3500 | 5000 | 13.5% | 75000 |
3 | 20 | 30000 | 3600 | 3000 | 10.5% | 105000 |
4 | 20 | 40000 | 4500 | 10000 | 9.9% | 145000 |
5 | 15 | 35000 | 4000 | 5000 | 8.4% | 180000 |
So the firm will invest in Projects 1, 7, 6 & 2
MARR = 13.5%

Projects | N | First Cost | Annual Benefits | Salvage value | IRR | Cumulative investment |
1 | 10 | 10000 | 2500 | 0 | =RATE(B2,D2,-C2,E2) | =10000 |
7 | 10 | 20000 | 4200 | 10000 | =RATE(B3,D3,-C3,E3) | =G2+C3 |
6 | 15 | 25000 | 5000 | 3000 | =RATE(B4,D4,-C4,E4) | =G3+C4 |
2 | 10 | 20000 | 3500 | 5000 | =RATE(B5,D5,-C5,E5) | =G4+C5 |
3 | 20 | 30000 | 3600 | 3000 | =RATE(B6,D6,-C6,E6) | =G5+C6 |
4 | 20 | 40000 | 4500 | 10000 | =RATE(B7,D7,-C7,E7) | =G6+C7 |
5 | 15 | 35000 | 4000 | 5000 | =RATE(B8,D8,-C8,E8) | =G7+C8 |

(a) What would the company’s budget need to be to fund all 7
projects?
(b) What projects would be funded if the company could get a
return on its money of 15% through other means?
(c) What other, non-financial factors, might lead the company to
decide to fund one or more of the projects with lower rates of
return?

You have just been hired to analyze the following projects for a start-up company. The CEO of your company has asked you to rank the projects and recommend the four best that the company should accept. In this assignment, only the quantitative considerations are relevant. No other project characteristics are deciding factors in the selection. All projects are believed to similarly risky. The firms' weighted average cost of capital has never been estimated. In the past, analysts have simply assumed...
