Which of the following statements is most likely correct for a project costing $50,000 and returning $14,000 per year for 5 years?

  1. NPV = $36,274.
  2. NPV = $20,000.
  3. IRR=14%.
  4. IRR is greater than 10%.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The total cash inflows are only $70,000 (5 x $14,000). Thus, whatever the discount rate, the j1NPVwill be less than $20000 ($70,000--$50,000).The return in the first year is $14,000, or28% of the initial investment. Since the same $14,000 flows in each year, the IRR is going to be greater than 10% (actually, it is almost 14%).

  2. $4,944
  3. $(37,408)
  4. $(32,008)

The net present value of a proposed investment is negative; therefore, the discount rate used must be

  1. Greater than the project's internal rate of return.
  2. Less than the project's internal rate of return.
  3. Greater than the firm's cost of equity.
  4. Less than the risk-free rate.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The higher the discount rate, the lower the NPV). The IRR is the discount rate at which the NPV is zero. Consequently, if the NPV is negative1 the discount rate used must exceed the IRR.
