Chapter 26: Q14SE (page 1467)

Refer to Short Exercise S26-4. Continue to assume that the expansion has no residual value. What is the project鈥檚 IRR? Is the investment attractive? Why or why not?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The investment is attractive because the internal rate of return is positive and equals 15.89%.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Internal Rate of Return

The metric used in capital budgeting to determine the project鈥檚 profitability is the internal rate of return. IRR is calculated using the same formula as used for NPV. Under calculation of IRR net present value is considered as 0.

02

Calculation of IRR

NPV=鈭�t=0TCt(1+IRR)t0=(-11,000,0001+IRR0+$2,714,7561+IRR1+$2,714,7561+IRR2+$2,714,7561+IRR3+$2,714,7561+IRR4+$2,714,7561+IRR5+$2,714,7561+IRR6+$2,714,7561+IRR7)IRR=15.89%
