a. Australian dominated IRR
Internal rate of return is the interest rate that makes NPV of the project equal to zero
Let IRR be r
NPV=0
-64000000+160000000/(1+r)+(-100000000)/(1+r)2=0
1000000[-64+160/(1+r)-100/(1+r)2]=0
( 160(1+r)-100)/(1+r)2=64 {by LCM}
160+160r-100=64(1+r)2
By solving this equation,we get
IRR=25%
Calculation of NPV
Years | Cash Flow | DCF | PV of CF |
0 | -6,40,00,000.0 | 1 | -6,40,00,000.00 |
1 | 16,00,00,000.00 | 0.833333 | 13,33,33,333.33 |
2 | -10,00,00,000.00 | 0.694444 | -6,94,44,444.44 |
NPV | -1,11,111.11 |
Since, NPV is negative it should not invest.
b. Calculation of SGD Denominated Cash flow and NPV
Years | Cash Flow | DCF | PV of CF | Rate* | SGD denominated |
0 | -6,40,00,000.0 | 1 | -6,40,00,000.00 | 0.9828 | -6,28,99,200.00 |
1 | 16,00,00,000.00 | 0.833333 | 13,33,33,333.33 | 0.945713 | 12,60,95,094.34 |
2 | -10,00,00,000.00 | 0.694444 | -6,94,44,444.44 | 0.910026 | -6,31,96,244.22 |
NPV | -1,11,111.11 | -349.88 |
Snce, NPV is negative it should not invest.
*inflation rate has been considered for calculation of rates
c.
Years | Cash Flow | Rate | SGD |
0 | -6,40,00,000.0 | 0.9828 | -6,28,99,200.0 |
1 | 16,00,00,000.00 | 0.9828 | 15,72,48,000.0 |
2 | -10,00,00,000.00 | 0.9828 | -9,82,80,000.0 |
IRR | 25.00% |
No, the answer did not vary i.e. the firm should not accept the project.

5. The NPV and payback period Aa Aa What information does the payback period provide? Suppose you are evaluating a project with the expected future cash inflows shown in the following table. Your boss has asked you to calculate the project's net present value (NPV). You don't know the project's initial cost, but you do know the project's regular, or conventional, payback period is 2.50 years. If the project's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 790, the project's NPV...
