Cutler Petroleum, Inc., is trying to evaluate a generation project with the following cash flows:Year Cash Flow0 –$ 39,800,000 1

63,800,000 2 – 12,800,000 This project has two IRR's, namely percent and percent, in order from smallest to largest. (Note: If you can only compute one IRR value, you should input that amount into both answer boxes in order to obtain some credit.)

Answer:

The two IRRs are: - 76.49% and 36.79%

Explanation:

To simplify our "Hard work", let's denote the cash flow numbers in terms of '000 (To reduce the number of zeros).

IRR is that discount rate R, for which NPV = 0

NPV is the sum of discounted cash inflows and outflows. Therefore,

NPV ($'000) = - 39,800 + (63,800 / (1 + R) - [12,800 / (1 + R)2]

When NPV = 0 [If R is the IRR],

0 = - 39,800 + [(63,800 / (1 + R)] - [12,800 / (1 + R)2]

[12,800 / (1 + R)2] - [(63,800 / (1 + R)] + 39,800 = 0

To simplify further, let's put N = 1 + R. Also, let's divide both sides by 200 [Note: We're only doing arithmetical simplification to reduce the large numbers]]:

[64 / (N)2] - (319 / N) + 199 = 0

Multiplying all terms by (N2):

64 - 319N + 199 (N)2 = 0

that is,

199 (N)2 - 319N + 64 = 0

This is a quadratic equation with large coefficients. Solving quadratic equation is outside scope of this question (it belongs to Algebra), so I've used an Online Quadratic equation solver**, which returns following values of N:

N = 1.3679, and N = 0.2351

So:

1 + R = 1.3679, Or 1 + R = 0.2351

R = (1.3679 - 1) or R = (0.2351 - 1)

R = 0.3679 or R = - 0.7649

The two IRRs are: - 76.49% and 36.79%
