When a consumer shifts purchases from product x to product y, the marginal utility of <u>X rises, and the </u><u>marginal utility</u><u> of Y falls.</u>

In economics, utility is the satisfaction or benefit obtained from consuming a product. The marginal utility of a good or service describes how much pleasure or satisfaction a consumer gains or loses by increasing or decreasing his consumption by one unit. There are three types of marginal utility. They are positive, negative, or zero marginal utilities.

Marginal utility is the pleasure obtained by the consumer for each additional unit he consumes. Calculate the utility over the first consumed product (threshold amount). For example, you can buy frozen donuts. In return, this will give you a certain level of benefit or satisfaction.

Your firm is considering a project that will cost $ 4.548 million up​ front, generate cash flows of $ 3.50 million per year for
Alika [10]

Answer:

(a) It will have multiple IRRs

(b) The MIRR calculated is 10.18% . Going by MIRR result , this project will only generate returns that is equal to cost of capital(10%)  .If there are other avaible more viable projects, it should be rejected ( Please see attached computation).

Explanation:

(a) The multiple IRRs occurs when cash flows change sign and result in more than one value for the IRR.

Application of IRR to value an investment is only suitable when the project has normal cash flows, i.e a negative initial cash flow (i.e initial investment) followed by a series of positive cash flows.

In this scenario, we have negative cash flow of $6m  in year 4 which occured after positive cash flow of $3.5m per year from year 1 to 3. This typically make IRR unreliable. To overcome this limitation , we can use Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR)

(b) Please see attached for more details.
