    i have seen other post that the way to get 4.2%is by

    The NPV at 5% is 1043.27 – 1079.68 = -36.41

    The NPV at 4% is 1089.01 – 1078.68 = +10.33

    Therefore the IRR = 4% + 10.33/(10.33 + 36.41) = 4.02%

    (Got from https://opentuition.com/topic/gnt-co/)

    1. how did you get 1078.68 ? because this is not shown anywhere in the question or in the answer

    2. also shouldn’t the IRR be 4.22% ?

    4% + 10.33/ ( 10.33 + 36.41 ) x (5%-4%)

    Oops – I made a trivial typing error (it happens when I am answering so many questions).

    However – assuming you are happy with basic IRR calculations (which you should be since it was the same in Papers F2 and Paper PM) then my error should be pretty obvious 🙂

    It should read as follows:

    The NPV at 5% is 1043.27 – 1079.68 = -36.41

    The NPV at 4% is 1089.01 – 1079.68 = +9.33

    Therefore the IRR = 4% + 9.33/(9.33 + 36.41) = 4.2%
