The FIN340 Company is evaluating a project with the following projected annual cash flows: Period 0: ($450), Period 1: ($610), Period 2: $120, Period 3: $630, Period 4: $850, Period 5: $250. The company has a WACC of 12%. Calculate the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for this project.

Solutions

Expert Solution

IRR is the rate at which NPV=0. ie: PV of inflows = PV of outflows. It is calculated by trial and error method.

Lets find NPV at say 15%.

Year Cashflow PVF@15% Cashflow*PVF
0                          (450) 1                        (450.00)
1                          (610) 0.8696                        (530.43)
2                            120 0.7561                             90.74
3                            630 0.6575                           414.24
4                            850 0.5718                           485.99
5                            250 0.4972                           124.29

NPV = PV of Inflows - PV of Outflows

= (90.74+414.24+485.99+124.29)-)450+530.43)

= 1115.26-980.43

= $134.82

Since NPV is positive, Take a higher rate say 20%

Year Cashflow PVF@20% Cashflow*PVF
0                          (450) 1                        (450.00)
1                          (610) 0.8333                        (508.33)
2                            120 0.6944                             83.33
3                            630 0.5787                           364.58
4                            850 0.4823                           409.92
5                            250 0.4019                           100.47

NPV = PV of Inflows - PV of Outflows

= (83.33+364.58+409.92+100.47)-(450+508.33)

= 958.30-958.33

= -.03

either you can stop here, or continue as follows.

Now we got two rates R1 and R2 such that NPV at R1(NPV1) is higher and NPV at R2(NPV2) is lower.

IRR = R1 + ((NPV1 x (R2 - R1)) / (NPV1 - NPV2))

= 15+((134.82*(20-15))/(134.82+.03)

= 19.9988876529

= 20.00%

You can use the equation 1/(1+i)^n to find PVF using calculator

Formula to calculate PV in excel is as follows "=PV(interest rate,Year,0,cashflow)"

Formula to calculate NPV in excel is as follows "=NPV(Rate,cashflows)+initial investment"
