A company is considering a two year project, which has two annual internal rate or return, namely 10% and 25%. The sum of the undiscounted cash flow is positive. The project will necessarily have a positive net present value, when the annual cost of capital is A. more than 25% B. more than 10% C. between 10% to 25% D. less than 25%
I found this question in Kaplan’s study material and the suggested answer is A i.e. more than 25%. I am not clear about the calculation mechanism. Can you help me?
What is IRR, the position of NPV = 0 So the net present value (NPV) will be positive when the cost of capital is higher than the highest IRR, which in this case is 25%.
