Hello Mr Moffat,
I didn’t exactly understood ‘The proceeds are reinvested at IRR,’ kindly unfold my ambiguity.
Thanks
February 16, 2015 at 5:19 pm #228673When we get cash inflows from the project, the question is what does the company do with the cash.
NPV assumes that it is used to pay back the borrowing and therefore saves money at the cost of capital. IRR (if used to make decisions) assumes that the money is re-invested in similar projects so as to earn the same return as the project and therefore continues to earn at the IRR.

‘One period model’ means that it was only actually proved over one year. However it is generally accepted to work in the longer term as well (and in exam calculations we assume that it does).
