Answer:

3.92

NPV when I is 3% = $335.65

NPV when I is 10% = $-66.70

Explanation:

Pay back period is the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flows.

Payback period = amount invested / cash flow = $2000 / $510 = 3.92

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-2000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $510

NPV when I is 3% = $335.65

NPV when I is 10% = $-66.70

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

Project W: 4% + 0.75 * (11%-4%) = 9.25%

Project X: 4% + 0.90 * (11%-4%) = 10.3%

Project Y: 4% + 1.15 * (11%-4%) = 12.05%

Project Z: 4% + 1.45 * (11%-4%) = 14.15%

So, for:

a)

Which projects have a higher expected return than the firms 11 percent cost of capital: Project Y 12.8% and Project Z 13.9% which are given.

b)

Project should be accepted is project that has expected returns higher than required return which is Project X and Project Y.

c)

Using the firm's overall cost of capital as a hurdle rate:

Project Z will be accepted which is incorrect because its Required returned is higher than its expected returns ( 14.15% > 13.9%)

Project X will be rejected which is incorrect because its Required returned is lower than its expected returns ( 10.3% < 10.8%).
