1.Easy

A project costs €10 000 today and returns €4 000 at the end of each year for 4 years. The required rate of return is 8%. Find the profitability index PI.

C₀ = €10 000CF = €4 000n = 4r = 8%

PI =

2.Easy

A project costs €25 000 today and returns €11 500 at the end of each year for 3 years. The required rate of return is 6%. Find the net present value NPV.

r = 6%CF₀ = −25 000CF₁ = 11 500CF₂ = 11 500CF₃ = 11 500

NPV = €

3.Medium

An investment of €75 000 gives these cash flows at the end of years 1 to 3: €20 000, €17 000, €28 000. The cost of capital is 8%. Find the net present value NPV.

r = 8%CF₀ = −75 000CF₁ = 20 000CF₂ = 17 000CF₃ = 28 000

NPV = €

4.Medium

An investment of €75 000 gives these cash flows at the end of years 1 to 4: €17 000, €17 000, €31 000, €21 000. The cost of capital is 7.000000000000001%. Find the net present value NPV.

r = 7.000000000000001%CF₀ = −75 000CF₁ = 17 000CF₂ = 17 000CF₃ = 31 000CF₄ = 21 000

NPV = €

5.Hard

A project costs €20 000 and returns €8 500, €13 500, €8 000 at the end of years 1 to 3. Find its internal rate of return IRR in percent.

CF₀ = −20 000CF₁ = 8 500CF₂ = 13 500CF₃ = 8 000

IRR = %

6.Hard

A project costs €25 000 and returns €12 000, €15 000 at the end of years 1 to 2. Find its internal rate of return IRR in percent.

CF₀ = −25 000CF₁ = 12 000CF₂ = 15 000

IRR = %
