NPV = Present value of cash inflows – Present value of cash outflows
Profitability Index = Present value of Cash inflows/Present value of cash outflows
IRR is the rate at which NPV = 0
Payback period is the time period in which the initial investment in recovered
Since NPV is positive. Profitability Index will be greater than 1
And IRR will be higher than cost of capital
And payback period will be shorter
Hence, the answer is
D)I and III are correct

Please explain the answer. The Murka's project requires initial investments of $77 and its NPV is greater than zero. If...
Please explain the answer. The Mishka's project requires initial investments of $100 and its NPV is less than zero. If the project has conventional cash flows and discount rate is above zero, and the project life is 5 years then: The NPV of the project may become positive if the discount rate will increase significantly enough. The project never pays back on discounted basis. The IRR of the project will increase if the required rate of return increases. None of...
A project requires, as its only cost, an initial investment of $17,000. It then generates positive future cash flows. The appropriate discount rate is 22%. This project has an NPV of -$935 (negative NPV). What can you say about this project’s IRR? A project requires, as its only cost, an initial investment of $17,000. It then generates positive future cash flows. The appropriate discount rate is 22%. This project has an NPV of -$935 (negative NPV). What can you say...
Show all work and highlight final answer. Do not answer the question unless you answer all of them. 4. Which one of the following will decrease the net present value of a project? (a) Increasing the value of each of the project's discounted cash inflows (b) Moving each of the cash inflows forward to a sooner time period (c) Decreasing the required discount rate (d) Increasing the project's initial cost at time zero 5. Which of the following is true...
A four-year project requires an initial investment of $208,000 for fixed assets and $19,500 for net working capital. All of the net working capital will be recouped at the end of the project. The annual operating cash flow is $76,200 and the discount rate is 6.00 percent. I. Create a timeline/chart to identify the relevant Cash Flows and their timing II. Use the Cash Flows for the following analysis: a) What is the Payback Period? b) What is the NPV?...
A project has a profitability index (PI) of 1.1. If the initial investment of $10,000. What do you know about the NPV and IRR? a) NPV may be smaller than zero b)NPV must be $1000 c) The IRR is the prevailing discount D) none of the above
Following is information in two alternative investments. The company requires an 8% return from its investments. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1). Project xi $(98,000) Project x2 $(156,000) Initial investment Expected net cash flows in: Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 34,000 44,500 69,500 73,500 63,500 53,500 a. Compute each project's net present value. b. Compute each project's profitability index. If the company can choose only one project, which should it choose? Required...
Which of the following statements is correct? A project's discounted payback period (DBP) is normally shorter than its traditional payback period (PB) because DPB accounts for the time value of money, whereas PB does not. To compute the NPV for a project, the firm's required rate of return must be known. To compute a project's internal rate of return (IRR), the firm's required rate of return is not used because the IRR is the discount rate where the project's NPV...
18. Which of the following is NOT true about the internal rate of return: A) A good project is one with IRR greater than the required return. B) IRR is the discount rate that results in a zero net present value for the project. C) Crossover rate for two projects is the IRR of the project with the difference of the cash flows of the two projects.. D) For two projects of the same size, IRR will usually choose the...
1. We can get multiple IRRS when we draw an NPV profile for a project when: a. The project is riskless. b. The project requires a large investment. c. The project cash flows are uneven and change in sign. d. The project has a balloon payment. e. The opportunity cost of capital is high. 2. The length of time required for an investment to generate cash flows sufficient to recover its initial cost, without taking into account time value of...
Question 15 answered a. If the company requires a 12 percent return on its investments, should it accept this project? Why? b. Compute the IRR for this project. How many IRRs are there? Using the IRR decision rule, should the company accept the project? What's going on here? 5. Calculating Profitability Index (LO7) What is the profitability index for the following set of cash flows if the relevant discount rate is 10 percent? What if the discount rate is 15...
